As a 22 year old, I cannot absolutely remember the last time I cried so much in such a short span of time. Not only because of the deaths, but the ending, and the fact that this is the last one.
I cried when Harry said goodbye to the dursleys! "See ya Big D." !!HEDWIG!! OMG.. why Hedwig? And I SO thought Hagrid was dead then. George (or is it Fred? *eyeroll*) and his poor ear. Although, I did chuckle at the ear jokes JK put in Classic. Ron with that book on how to talk to girls or whatever, LOL! Then when he used some of the lines on Hermione And Harry and Ginny.. who are you? Jack and Kate? For GODS SAKE IF YOU'RE GOING TO KISS TALK TO EACHOTHER AFTERWARDS!!! Seriously, this happens in everything I read/watch. Pssshhhtt.

I was reading this for twelve hours straight yesterday (took the day off work mwahahahaha!!)
This book is a masterpiece. There is no other word for it! JK paced this last instalment FLAWLESSLY. I was gripped throughout the entire book. From chapter 33 onwards, I couldn't take my eyes away from the page, and throughout my last half an hour of reading, I was crying non-stop. For those who haven't read it, I won't say either way whether the ending is happy or sad, just that it's one of the most moving pieces of literature I've read in my life. The final fight, though it goes on for what seems like forever, is excellently written, with some old characters coming to the fore in a spectacular ending to the series. Thumbs up, JK! 10 out of 10. _________________ Supernatural Video Station
I've just finished reading, and it was really, really great. But...*bursts out in tears*
Spoiler:
WHY??? Why Fread, Lupin and Tonks? Why the tell did she need to kill them? I was always sure that at least the twins will be safe *cries her eyes off* and the poor son of Lupin and Tonks is now alone I cried so much as the Weasleys were all standing round Fred, and George kneeling beside him, and then Lupin and Tonks lying beneath him...OmG, I'm beginning to cry once more and poor, poor Dobby, and Hedwig! Why did JKR have to be so brutal to kill all of them?
But it was so genuis as Molly killed Bellatrix! It was really amazing! I think none of us has ever read ( ) her so furious...of course, because of her dead son...*cry again*

I finished it last night which means that now I'm dead tired and my eyes are still burning from all the crying and it's my first day at my summer internship, GAH!!
Spoiler:
Yes, I did cry a lot. And somehow, I'm not happy, even with such a wonderful happy ending. Maybe I'll have to let it sink in first.
So many dead characters, it was just awful. I was crying all the time. Mad-Eye, Dobby, Hedwig, Fred, Tonks and Remus... that was too much (in particular Tonks and Remus)
Worst of all those deaths was Snape's death, at least to me. I mean, I saw it coming, but I gotta admit that he was one of my favourites and to me, it was simply heart-breaking. Especially when considering that, right after his death, Harry found out the whole about Snape. That he had indeed been "Dumbledore's Man", that he had risked his own life all the time and that he's been in love with Harry's mother in all those years. That was too much for me
Although I'm still kinda unhappy, I have to say that there were a lot of great moments, too:
- Ron and Hermione finally kissing. I actually screamed with joy (yeah, I'm so very mature with my 23 years ). In general, they were great together in this book. I loved to see how much Ron cared about her all the time
- Neville being the new "leader" of Dumbledore's Army, killing the Basilik and becoming teacher at Hogwarts. That boy really deserved a good ending. Would've been such a shame if he, too, had died.
- Ron saving Harry from drowning and destroying the locket afterwards. Go Ron!!
- Kreacher becoming a Harry Potter-supporter
- One of Harry's kids being named Albus Severus. That brought tears to my eyes once again. What a noble gesture.
I'm sure there were even more great moments, but I can't think of anything else right now... too tired...
I'm sure I'll read the book again, but that might take a while... 'til I get over Severus' death, I reckon.
