Where has this topic gone? I need to vent my frustrations of how much the epiloge sucked.
(She blasted off George's ear, killed his brother and then didn't even mention him? And what about Fred? He didn't even get a kid named after him. Hugo? Give me a break.)

George did name his first child after Fred.
What is with all of you? You only care that one of the comic relief characters was killed off! (Don't take this the wrong way, I truly did like Fred.) Don't care about any of the others?

She killed in quantity but the characters killed weren't *that* major.
Sure there were deaths, but that's kind of expected. Personally, I think the bloodbath hype is way too much. Isn't the happily-ever-after ending good enough for y'all?

Ya I agree with u. Harry deserves a happy life after all his sufferings - & what he got in the end was just a normal life like v all usually lead. What is so sugar sweet about the epilogue? JK herself has said a lightining cannot strike the same tree twice so v can't expect Harry to lead a dangerous & troubled life again. It would seem too fairytale - like to bestow another adventure on Harry & co. Harry deserves a happy, peaceful & normal life. So what is so hateful about the editorial? IF Harry & co did'nt enjoy their life,what was the use of Fred, Lupin, Tonks, Dobby etc etc to die? Their death atleast has ensured a bright life for the survivers. What v learn from the epilogue is to move on, irrespective of what took place in the past. If Harry still mourned & lead a depressed life, the deaths of his friends would have been in vain. They died to reconstruct a better world - & their last wish luckily, got fulfilled.Mwamba wrote: She killed in quantity but the characters killed weren't *that* major.

So please don't go on about the epilogue, it was the best ending Jo could give 2 her series. I suppose v got 2 used 2 dark & dangerous things in DH that the epilogue seemed out of place. Try reading book 1 again - it suddenly seems so childish. The same applies 2 book 6, where v see Harry worried about Quidditch & homework & stuff. Book 7 is way 2 darker!
I also suggest ( to people who r still convinced the epilogue is crap) to read the Mugglenet Editorial " All is well".

An amazing individual? For reals? Now, I give him props for rebelling against Umbridge, but I think 'amazing' is just exaggerated. He's just a minor, fictional character.Queezle7 wrote: He is an amazing individual who did not deserve to die.
That because JKR wrote the cr-epilogue way back when she started. She locked it in a drawer only to open it just as she was finishing DH. Laziness and brilliance all in one?wrote:Try reading book 1 again - it suddenly seems so childish.

You people insist because all the characters who died are 'minor' they don't matter. I prefer the minor characters to the major ones. Hell, that's why I read the books! Ron, Harry and Hermione are interesting enough. But her true writing skills come out in her other characters.

I have an incredible amount of book crushes.
In fact, generally when I read a fiction book, I have a book crush on one of the guys in it.

Depends. You do get crushes on real guys right? :) It's okay as long as you don't take it too seriously. There are some pretty obessed people out there. But as its Fred, its understandable.

This is one serious doubt I have got. What did Ron actually become? In a interview Jo said he became an Auror & helped George to restart the joke shop (or something along that line). But in the web chat ( available at Bloomsbury. com) she said he worked in the joke shop with George & it bacame a real money spinner. She said nothing about him being an auror! I am really confused & I want Ron 2 be the former. There is a possibility he might be working in both places but that seems improbable. Please answer.
