Ch. 24-Lots of wandlore in this chapter from Ollivander. A wand's allegiance changes if it's forcibly taken or the wizard is Disarmed. But Harry Disarms all the time and so did the D.A. and nobody's wands changed allegiance. IDK. But Harry forcibly took Draco's wand and somehow Draco's wand is the master of the Elder Wand or something.
Ch. 25
-Congrats to Lupin and Tonks. Godfather Harry!
-I like Shell Cottage. Seems like a quaint place to live.
Ch 26
-How did Bellatrix get her wand back from Azkaban? I assume the Ministry confiscated it when she went in.
-I guess Luna's of age since she's doing magic out back of Shell Cottage.
-Impersonating Bellatrix seems downright reckless.
-Harry using an Unforgivable Curse is a huge moment. It shows he's willing to do whatever it takes and it also kind of dirties him for me.
-I know the dragon isn't real but the treatment of it sickens me.
-What an escape!
Ch. 27
-Harry's instincts prove correct: the last Horcrux is at Hogwarts.
Ch. 28
-Ah, right. Those Muggles attacked Ariana and she never recovered mentally. Refused to do magic so she never learned to control it and it would come out in bursts. It killed her mother and Ariana died while Albus, Aberforth, and Grindelwald were dueling.
-Yay, Neville!

I love Luna.
The bank heist was again really stupid, but a lot of fun.
Interesting bits about the Dumbledores from Abeforth in this section.
Luna is great. I really loved her in this one. And definitely dig the info we get from Aberforth regarding Albus and the family.
And then love seeing Neville again!
I love how Neville is changed. He really could have been the chosen one too, if Voldemort had "chosen" him.
