You have got to be kidding me...

But all those Harry/Hermione shippers must be crying themselves to sleep - as any sane person knew.

Sorry to disappoint, but I did not cry myself to sleep. I kind of rather shrugged about it and went on.
And from the harry/hermione communities I drop in on, no one there has been crying either. Disappointed yes, but most have also been somewhat happy that it didn't happen after all.

Oh I'm not talking about ordinary shippers - I'm talking about the ones that concocted elaborate essays on alchemy in Harry Potter to prove it beforehand, and did all amounts of bending to prove it true.

Like the one I'm friends with She has a pissy little message in her msn name this morning

Catalily, 'apparation silver one'? I'm being thick, that one went riiight over my head

Yeah - those ones.  I spent the night before DH reading their alchemy theories on Leaky - I have a good friend who is into alchemy and we were pming away on the subject, while laughing at the delusional shippers.  They had essays and everything  :lol:

Sorry the one I meant is the second personal one - involving the seaside - trying not to spoil for those readers.

That was the one that made me cry non-stop and have to take a break. I still can't think about it (the seaside). With the two, I suspect it was part of her love of creating symmetry between the generations.

Loving the very very end with the comment made at the station. Trying to get away from the Snape-like predisposition, I take it.

I just finished the book. It was good, all except the epilogue. The epilogue was too goody-goody for me. It about made me cry, probably because it was the last one. I did have a good time shouting "OMG" during some parts.

But all those Harry/Hermione shippers must be crying themselves to sleep - as any sane person knew. I actually saw one of them argue that Ron giving Hermione a bottle of perfume meant less than Harry giving her a book -  yeah - cause my husband wouldn't smash someone in the face if they were a friend and gave me perfume - books - no smashing  

Calalily, I have seen that Ron and Hermione were an item since the Order of the Phoenix movie...she was all over Ron, worrying about his Feelings, and yelling at Harry for letting Ron get hurt....it was quite obvious after that. (I'm not spoiling anything, am I? My son is reading the book and won't tell me anything.)

[calalily]

You're certainly not spoiling anything - it's been obvious since about book 2 that there is something more between the two of them.  

There's just confirmation of what's been obvious before that's all.

Loving the very very end with the comment made at the station.

Me too.

I think the funniest thing was Ron's remark about horcrux hunting in a mobile library.

[Aikane]

Nah, the funniest bit was the Snape-shampoo comment made by Fred.  That was pure brilliance!
