Ping to names I pulled off the “waiting for” list. SPOILERS!
I loved the book, loved the fight scene, but hated Fred dying and Dobby. I was crying when Dobby died. :(
Loved the "forest hopping." That was a great way to show the isolation, and the kind of "what do we do now" mindset of the trio.
Harry's struggle with his anger and doubts about DD.
Ron facing his greatest insecurities and overcoming them.
And Hermione, I love Hermione. She was so unwavering in her loyalty to Harry and his mission. So able to reign the boys in and help them stay focused on what needed to be done. And, who else would have thought to pack that righteous little beaded hand bag!!
Loved the DD/Grindelwald backstory.
Neville totally rocked!(Dumbledore's Army...still recruiting! LOL)
Snape and Petunia I thought were very satisfactorily explained.
Loved a very mature Harry digging Dobby's grave and deciding (correctly) to go after the Horcruxes instead of the Hallows.
The Marauders and Lily walking Harry to his "death." sob
And I liked the little parallel between the Bloody Baron wearing chains as an act of penitence for murdering the Gray Lady, and Snape spending his life protecting Lily's son because of his role in her murder.
There's so much more, but this post is way too long as it is!
