On the train to see her off. He would probably get off before the train left.

Well, yea, I just felt that the epilogue wasn't worded well. Not a big deal.

Couple things here: Did Dumbledore see a different place than King's Cross when he was with Harry? Dumbledore didn't seem to notice it, and said something about Harry's party. And, in the Epilogue, was Teddy Lupin just on the train so he could snog Bill and Fleurs daughter? Because Teddy would have been 19 and too old for Hogwarts. I think King's Cross was all in Harry's mind; they were in some different, abstract place, a reflection of Harry's mind. And yeah, looks like Teddy was just seeing her off. As for Dumbledore's wand, I'm guessing it was just left behind on the tower, and someone picked it up and put it in Dumbledore's tomb.

That's certainly what it seems like. So Victoire is Bill's daughter? I couldn't figure that one out. Did anyone else think Hermione was extremely unreasonable after Ron came back? And I was very sad for Hedwig...
And I'm not sure I'll ever be more creeped out than at the end of that wedding: "The Ministry has fallen. Scrimgeour is dead. They are coming..."
And it pained me to see that my hero Dumbledore was far from perfect.

Well, since Victoire is a french name, thats what most people guessed.
I think Hermione wanted to teach Ron a lesson for running away like that, but yeah, she was going a bit over the top.
I think a more creepy moment was at Bathildas house, especialy when the snake came out her neck. Gross.
Edit: I cant seem to figure out exactly, how big is Nagini? A few meters? or is it just a normal snake?

I wish, that at least once in books 1-6, that Hermione would have mentioned something about Professor Burbage instead of her first mention and death were both at the same time basically.

So I'm not done yet but I had to stop reading for a moment. I hate J.K. Rowling. Theres only three characters who really arent allowed to die. And two now of them are dead! I miss Fred.

What? Who are the three who aren't allowed to die? I would have assumed they were Harry, Ron and Hermione.

That just makes no sense at all.

Well they're the three she doesn't want to die.
I think Nagini has been described as bigger than a normal snake, but I could be wrong.

Did anyone else think Hermione was extremely unreasonable after Ron came back? -gets a blackboard- Teenage Girls 101Never try to reason with an emotional teenage girl. She was extremely reasonable, and every girl I know would do exactly as she did.

What? Who are the three who aren't allowed to die? I would have assumed they were Harry, Ron and Hermione. Oh the three people I never wanted to die were Sirius, Fred, and McGonagall. I think I meant to say more in that post but then I went back to reading. Did anyone else think Hermione was extremely unreasonable after Ron came back? -gets a blackboard- Teenage Girls 101Never try to reason with an emotional teenage girl. She was extremely reasonable, and every girl I know would do exactly as she did. Why can't you reason with an emotional teenage girl? Just because a girl is emotional doesnt mean they are unable to see any logic at all. I think Hermione was being slightly unreasonable and she probably knew that but she felt betrayed by Ron. Just because he came back and says hes sorry doesnt mean she can let go of all the anger she felt towards him for leaving in an instant. And I liked most of the book. The epilogue was stupid and some of it was way too sentimental for me but otherwise it wasn't bad.
