Hallows That Are Deathly


I simultaneously love and hate this book. Hermione is now my favourite character - the way she uses magic now she's of age is just fantastic. It made me laugh aloud when reading for the first time in ages. However, I was disappointed with the ending. Completely disappointed. There was so much potential there, but it never really climaxed into anything spectacular, in my humble opinion.

 

And don't get me started on the epilogue.

Really? I thought the Epilogue was very well writen and a spectacular way to finish the series. I think its the best book so far out of the series. Its quite sad I feel that the series has finished, its been around for nearly half of my life. How do you feel about the series finishing?

 

Oh, the epilogue was well written, but what about the rest of the characters? I'm sure JKR said that the epilogue was meant to explain what happened to all the major characters. I feel quite sad too, but still - I've got plenty of writing myself to be getting on with.

I know what you mean there, some important characters (naming no names), we weren't told what there ultimate fate was. I was very pleased for certain characters at their new-found braveness and heroness. But some bits in the book, I wanted to cry at. I'm trying to write by epics as well, also i'm trying to plan the Xion series as well.

 

P.S What have I done thats magical?

 

Oh, goodness...writing an epic about the Xion? Featuring me in your work? Liking Enmicious?

All the major characters, but keep in mind that she seems to have a very narro view of which characters are "main" characters. I assume the same holds true here.

Harry vs. Voldemort was a little anti-climatic. You've got to admit Molly vs. Bellatrix, was awesome though

Harry/Hermionnie shippers around the world will hate this book though (like it still stood a chance...)

Of all the deaths that afected me most, it was the very first.

I found the last chapter anti-climatic myself, but overall well-writen. I just wish that there weren't so many deaths.

Getting rid of one of the Weasley brothers waas a terrible thing to do, but the other deaths seemed ok.

 

I personally liked the Epiloge, I never knew that would happen.

Now that's what I call obsesion.

It's a little late but, Expecto Patronum!... I think that's worth a couple of magical points. :P

 

No, sorry. Expecto Patronum is not one of my favourite spells. Guess my favourite spell and win a point!

Seran! You're MP thing is pushing people to compromise their posting just to get some! Or, maybe not.

My bad Seran. That did seem a bit childlish now that I think of it. :( I'll still try and guess though.

How many guesses to we get?

 

P.S Is it a common spell?

 

As many as you like. And it could be common, depending on...yeah.

How about "Waddiwasi?" It's only been used once, so I'm still not quite sure what it does, but Lupin used it to fling gum up Peeves's nose.

 

I seriously doubt that's what it is, but since we get as many guesses as we want, I might as well start with something random.

 

With all due respect,
