108991 Wow. That answered a lot of questions for me. I wondered those things, yet I think that Rowling told us the most important stuff: Harry and his family life. Thanks!

112041 I'm still getting the hang of this goodreads. I am not seeing all the comments. What am I doing wrong? What interview? How are your questions answered? I just finished reading the book last night and can't think of anything else! Yes, I liked it. I need to read the end again though.

1267859 you should seriously put that in the "spoilers", btw, i think it is stupid that harry, ron, hermione, AND ginny survived. I love them all, but isn't that a bit predictable?
