HP survey...spoilers
Name: Rosie
Age: 19
Location: Petaluma, CA
Friending Policy: I'll friend just about anyone, but I tend to limit it to people I either know IRL or people on communities or message boards or something.
Hours it Took You to Finish DH: I finished it at 2.30 am on the 22nd. Total reading hours about 6-7...but stuff happened...lol
BEFORE
Former Favorite HP Book: Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3)
Canon (or Not Disproved)
Ships You Supported: Harry/Ginny. Ron/Hermione. Lupin/Tonks.
Number of DH Theories You Had: I thought the Deathly Hallows was the place beyond the vail. I thought that Neville would kill Bellatrix. I thought that something to do with Godric Gryffindor would happen at Godric's Hollow.
Describe Your Best/Favorite Theory: Someone said that the Mirror of Erised would be the 7th Horcrux and that it had belonged to Rowena Ravenclaw
What Time Did You Get it at? midnight
DURING
What you did/thought about...
The Seven Potters: Clever idea. I was shocked that Hedwig died...that to me was just like...unbelieveable. Mad Eye was sad as well, and ironic because he was always the one who was all "constant vigilence" all the time
Regulus: Not a supprise at all.
Ron Leaving: I was supprised, but I felt it was realistic that he would finally crack under the pressure. I was very, very happy when he came back.
Godric's Hollow: I cried so hard when he was in the graveyard and at the cottage. It really sunk in for me how much he had missed growing up, and how much his parents (esp Lily) had sacrificed for him. The whole Bagshot/snake thing was just nasty, though it was a good shocker.
Harry's Wand Breaking: I was sad, supprisingly. I also hoped that it might somehow help in the final battle not to have that wand, but at the same time the fact that it was Fawkes' feather was a link to Dumbledore so that made me sad. Where did Fawkes wind up, anyways?
The Deathly Hallows: I was really supprised that they were objects and not a place. I liked how there was the legend about it and how she addressed the idea of wizarding fairytales. I've always really liked the way JK has developed a whole culture for the magical world. As far as the hallows themselves, I liked the idea of the unbeatable wand, and also that Harry had had one of them all along.
Breaking into Gringotts: Very cool. If anyone could break into the unbreak-into-able bank, it's our trio. I also love the way JK does battle scenes.
Aberforth and Ariana: Sad, but it was good to hear the backstore on Dumbledore. He's always been one of my favorite characters, and I always wondered about his background, while kind of assuming that I would never find out.
Snape Being Good: I was wrong. I'll admit it. I thought he was working for neither side, and only playing both sides to serve himself. In a way, he was still serving himself, but in a tragic unrequited love kind of way.
Harry Being a Horcrux: I didn't see that one coming. I had never really thought about that theory even having potential because I didn't like the idea that Harry would have to die. I didn't want to admit that that was possible...lol
King's Cross: I was confused. I'm still not sure what some of it was about, and that's one of the passages I'll have to reread carefully.
The Epilogue: I had hoped for a longer, more detailed version.
AFTER
New Favorite HP Book: Deathly Hallows
Canon Ships You Now Support: no new ones
Number of Your Theories That Came True (or Sort of Did): Godric's Hollow had to do with Gryffindor. I also thought Snape was self serving, and in a way he was.
Overall Impression of DH: Amazing. Just amazing. I just wish there would be 7 more, lol
Favorite Part: Ron's return and him crushing the locket. Or Neville killing the snake. Or Molly killing Bella (Bella I hated second only to Voldemort)
Least Favorite Part: The snake coming out of the dead woman...
Saddest Part: Fred, Dobby, Lupin
Coolest Part: Molly freaking out and killing Bella...priceless
Best Completely Unexpected Part: Molly cussing
Best New Character: I don't know
Saddest Character Death: Fred, Dobby, Lupin
