Simply put, I loved it. I thought the last book was one of the best ends for any series. For starters it actually took a shape which was completely different from the way I had envisaged. Secondly, it closed every single open point in the series. Finally it had that Grand Finale like finish that such a good series deserved. The only negative for me was the lame way in which Snape was killed. I had hoped for a much grander finish for him. Unfortunately, that was not to be.
Cheers!

I liked the end because it kept me in suspense. I must admit there was a moment that I actually thought that Harry would die. I was reading and crying (yes, I'm a wuss), and then all of a sudden, he was alive. I think I jumped up and screamed out of joy. That being said, I hated the epilogue. It was very predictable and I hated the pairings. I think Ginny is much to plain (not physically) for Harry though Ron and Hermione could be plausible. I think it's stupid that they all had kids (Draco and his mystery wife included.) the same year. What a coincidence. Finally, Draco's son's name being Scorpius was just ridiculous. The icing on top of an incredulous cake. I think if J.K. had taken out the Epilogue, the book would have been perfect. Besides, I wanted to know what happened to everyone, not just the main people so it wasn't even a real epilogue.
