It Needs To Be Done
Now that I am in a better frame of mind, I think I need to do a little review of Deathly Hallows, as I finished the book yesterday afternoon.
Hands down amazing. It was really fast paced and exciting and OH SO MANY THINGS happened it was insane. There was a shocking ammount of things that happened that were guessed. Well, maybe more like she had us guessing between two outcomes and it had to be one or the other, so some of us had to be right! I cried three times:
1) Overy Dobby. POOR Dobby! I know people think he's annoying and equate him with Jar Jar Binks *shakes fist at Chamber of Secrets movie* But I always adored him and found his doting over Harry and tearing up over getting christmas presents that consisted of Dudley's gross hand-me-down socks absolutely adorable and I always loved him. The burial killed me.
2) NEVILLE!! Neville, my love, how I adore the. I cried over the letter he got from his grandmother. It made me both so very sad and very happy at the same time, I was so emotional. Because she probably almost never complements her grandson- she seems such a tough love caregiver. AND what could possibly have been a higher complement than to say he's turning into his parents and to keep it up.
3) When Harry walks into the Forbidden Forest with his parents and Lupin and Sirius. I'd skipped ahead to the epologue early on so I knew he wouldn't die (well. . . permanently). But it was so emotional how ready he was to die. Also when he asks his parents to stay with him, and they oblige, that just felt like the most amazing news that could ever exist, it made me so happy.
Ron and Hermione were completely amazing. Ron did make me mad when he left, I never expected him to do that. But I never questioned for a second that he would come back because he is Ron and the Trio cannot function without eachother.
Can I get a WOOP WOOP!!!!!!! for Molly Weasley!? "NOT MY DAUGHTER, BITCH!" Ha. I loved it.
The epologue however, was nausiating. ALBUS SEVERUS?????? I'm sorry but HUBUJAHWHATTHEFUCK????????? I'm sure there are many many (nutters, forgive me) "Snape" (*cough*AlanRickman*cough*) fans who sobbed through all of those memories and cheered and clapped at the poor misunderstood wretch-turned-holy-savior and cried when Harry named his freaking son Severus but really now. Those memories merely turned my complete loathing (to the point where I didn't even give a fuck whether or not he was bad. . actually I didn't want him redeeemed but I hated speculating because I didn't give a fuck) to passing indifference. I actually really didn't like that he was so obsessively in love with Lily. I thought it was cool that they were friends, an interesting twist after our glimps of them in book 5.
All in all, there were a couple things I didn't like, but I'd still give it an A-.
