Discuss Deathly Hallows *Spoiler Zone*! - Page 4

^ NO!

We had agreed upon a no poiler zone did we not?? A newbie posted the summary. She was banned. No reasonss given, no reasons heard. That was the end of it. Come on guys, just a few days more max, and you can post as long as there's "spoiler" in the title!

I LOVED THE BOOK!!! I detested the 6th book, but it laid a great foundation for this one! I cannot believe the book was so interesting despite the fact that they didn't return to hogwarts! Just too good!

Cried for Fred... Just don't believe it. It is just soo sooo sad!!! Fred of all the bloody people in the world!!!

Weren't we right about Aberforth, Harry being a horcrux, Snape still being good, him loving lily and therefore coming back??

See! (Don't post in them, ppl will not want to read the plot spoilers now, will they?)

Aberforth
Snape and lily
Great theory by Aparna -- Snape Lily

Didn't realize how good you feel when you read a book after discussing theories. They were absolutely fabulous!!!

Ravenclaw pride!

As far as Dumbledore is concerned. I would like to add that he showed far gr8er remorse in his later years... torn down between his knowledge and his love for his sister...

He understood his limitations too well. He had understood long before (which no one did till his death) in his own words that "he was not to be trusted with power."

Whatever Dumbledore did in his younger days was the mistake of a Young, Ambitious, Smart, Over-Acheiver, Top of the Class in Everything, kind of person. If I were to sum him up he the younger Dumbledore would remind me of Percy.

And so he did go ahead do a Percy. acting stuck in that house and not heeding to what Aberforth was saying. Lost in the dreams that Grindelwald had spun around him. It was the typical mistake an adolescent anywhere in the world would have done. He tried simply to run from his responsibilities.

I wish to bring to your notice now what Dumbledore had said in the scene when he is talking with Harry in his office at the end of OotP. Near the end of the talk he says,

"In fact, being - forgive me - rather cleverer than most men, my mistakes tend to be correspondingly huger."

Only because he was cleverer than most men his mistakes too turned out be correspondingly huger. I think calling Dumbledore a selfish person would be wrong... don't you all agree????

Rosie could commit blasphemy by marrying a pure blood... 😛 😉 And I cant help imagine Draco's reaction when he'd knw his son's best friend is a Half blood...!! 😳 😳 😳

ewww..that would be too eww. Rosie had better stay away from those damn, cowardly Malfoys! They are the limits of cowardice🤢

the book waz so aweeesum!!!!!! 😊 loved it!!!!

got my hands on the book yesterday at 7.00 p.m(courtesy my dad 😆 )

they were way too many deaths........i cried my heart out for Fred 😭 😭 😭 ,of all the people y fred 😭

but the book was awesome,JK is truly amazing

loved r/hr parts..............the war moment was a lil unexpected though 😆

i wonder if they can do full justice to this movie

HP series rock 😃

i was also wondering,why didnt ron name his son"fred" 😳 ,tht wld have been nice 😊

Okie im back with my detaaaiiilled analysis of the book...

Positives

Well first it was amazingly written... she has gotten an amazing way of words and looking back from book one her writing has immensly matured and in this book it is amazing! The fast pacing of the book probved one of its plus poits. Adventure with a lot of story, plot and even the interwining of romance was a brilliant combination! hats off to JKR... Her intricacy is to be applauded... every single thing she says seems to have meaning to it! i mean looking at the book so closely most of the things are just riddles from the previous books that have been solved and i think dats amazing One more thing i liked was harry's maturity... he seems much much more grown up in this book... and it shows! i mean until the last book he was taken care of by dumbledore but in ddores absense, he seems to have grown up quite a bit And ron's charector, of insecurity and immense loyalty combines was beautifully etched! I loved dat bit of the book... And ron/hermy romance HAS to be applauded! so cute, so subltle and yet so ammazingly dreamy!!!!! they rock the world of romance!!!! And well their first kiss was too good! Especially the way harry goes "oi! there is a war going on here!" And rons sarcasm in the book was too good! it had me going 🤣 in the book! it was too good!!!
And fred and george rock too! their jokes did keep the book alive through the first half! (saint like 🤣🤣🤣) and i have to give it to snape! Amazingly sketched charector! A complete NON-gary stu and very very intricately plotted charector... his insecurity and his want for power... and his family situation that led him to who he was... and his immense love for lily that made him shift loyalties and beliefs was too good... and this gave a complete reason as to why ddore calls LOVE the greatest weapon And i saved the best for the last. Dumbledore... i could go on and on in this vein cos his charector has got to go down in history as the best sketched charector in the history of books... what intricacy, what reason, what amazing life... i mean a mixture of both negatives and positives and the incidents that made him who he is now... i mean his journey thru life that has made him commit many mistakes! what a story! hats off to JKR! i dont think i can praise her enough for this kind of a role... And yea one more point i want to add here... THANK YOU JKR FOR NOT KILLING MY DREAMS OF SIRIUS AS A GIRL CRAZY CUTIE PIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cos if u guys remember he had a poster of bikini clad girls :>... so glad he did 😍 now my dreams for d charector of my sirius were not bashed 😍😍 And thinking bout srius makes me get angry at bellatrix but guess what im not that angry cos what goes around comes around and well bellatrix went the same way sirius went and i am so glad for dat!!!!!!! and yea coming to the same sirius topic, i LOVE her for not revealing bout department of mysteries, that way us fanfiction writers can still go on assuming dat sirius will be back to life... and mebbe v can bring him back to life ... same goes for the fact dat she didnt focus so much on the marauder era pertining to the romantic views of james/lily as well as the friendship of the marauders and all... our imagination can still live...
• And yea one BIIIIIG hug to JKR for making lily's bday jan 30th cos for those who know it my bday too

NEGATIVES

Well firstly i do NOT like it that she killed fred... i know i expected it to happen to one of the weasleys but the way fred went reminded me so much of the way sirius went and i hated that to happen.. i mean the both of them were laughing till the end... and its so sad to see that happen... And i didnt like the thing bout the buk was that i felt dat harmione was out of charector... dunno i mean its JKRs charector and she can make it the way she wants... jst a few parts i felt were OOC... And well i didnt like the epilogue AT ALL... okie im in love with james potter jr. but still the names of the kids were weird and so was seeing all the cherectors middle ages and grown up and all that... i would have liked it to end lyk it did in the previous chapter itself cos anyway d epilogue was too short ... and the Albus severes was soo wierd to read... Coming to severas... i did not AT ALL like the sev-lily parts... it was tooooo weird!!!!! cnt stand the thought of it! but well at least it was made clear very clear dat lily didnt lyk snape so much and just gave him second chances cos she knew the other side of him thats all... And i didnt think there ought to be deaths at all.. dunt ask me why and say dat it would be so unrealistic but well i hate any sadness and as i have always felt its a childrens buk... and she could do without killing people right! killing loved ones really wrenches ur heart... and i hates it that she finished the marauder era completely!!!! i mean the killing of lupin and tonks was so depressing! i just couldnt read it.. i mean when u read a bul (this is pertaining to me here!) i would like to feel nice about reading it and i cannot deal with such losses... dats i guess my fault but im just posting my views right And well i think i can only say dat i didnt like the depressing bits of the buk but the buk couldnt have been written without it also i would have liked to see more romance between harry ginny as much as there was between ron hermy... i mean it was implied but well it could have been more...
• Also, though i liked harrys maturity in this book i felt that it has taken a BIG leap from the last one... mebbe the fact dat hes more independent cos hes not in hogwarts or anything i duno bt well it was a big leap from the last book... well this couls be both positive and negatives you know
  

well yea i think ill end it on this notes that both positives and negatives do exist but the positives outshining the negatives making it one of the best books i have ever read!!!!

Dumbledore, I felt, was the greatest and best sketched character by Jo. All his flaws and his strong points...his mistakes and his regrets were so cleverly written!

Looking at Dumbledore, esp. at the point after Harry sees the last of Snape's memories, you get the feeling that it was one big huge grand plan...for the greater good. And all the people who came in the plan were puppets..who played their parts and then were killed or disposed off....including himself

And, even in the end, I did get this feeling, but the plan was not so brutal as it felt at first. DD just KNEW that Harry would survive and taught Harry a very good lesson about the Deathly Hallows...esp about knowing but not seeking the Elder Wand.

He taught Harry a very wise lesson.

As for selfishness..and the mistakes in his youth...I felt they were the mistakes of an arrogant young boy with great magical powers. He made excuses for Grindelwald, just as Lily made excuses for Snape(so many parallels...)
However, he repented too and made up for his mistakes long long back by defeating Grindelwald and then all the things he did in subsequent years and esp. his part in the war against Voldemort.

He was selfish....but that was a really long time ago...and calling him selfish now would be wrong!

No ways! I loved loved loved absolutely loved Hermione-kins to bits in this one!!!😳 Her bravery and her sheer BRILLIANCE..wow...she was awesome!!!😳 I just loved her in this one...

I had read about people saying that Hermione sort of freezes when there's action and that she can't think on her feet...and I'm so glad that Jo shut those people up and proved what an absolute rocker Hermione can be!👏👏👏

I loved all the Hermione action scenes immensely! I was always irritated to see when people woud, you know, give all the action parts to Harry and Ron and give Hermione to solve the intellectual riddles. Sorta like the 'damsel in distress' kinda thing.🤢

So, I was amazed by Hermy-kins in this book! I loved her bond with Harry in this book...and esp the Godric's Hollow chapter. When they're both at Lily and James's graves and Harry's crying and she just holds his hand and then they go away from it, hugging all the way. I loved that chapter!

And then the Bellatrix torturing her part....people always say that Ron will sacrifice himself...but they never think that Hermione would too.

And the best thing was Hermione loyalty to Harry; all throughout the book..it never wavered...like Ron's did. I was annoyed with Ron when he left them and that too for such a dumb reason.
But I loved Hermione's unwavering loyalty and she stuck it out with him!
