1. On a scale of 1-10, I'd say my satisfaction is an 8. It's how Jo ended it, I'm satisfied with it.

2. Not really, not even what happened in that 19 years or the adventures of their children. I'll just wait for the encyclopedia)

3. Battles between good and evil have always been with casualties. It would have been odd if there weren't tragic deaths in the end. It's not a fairytale story even with the Epilogue bit.

4. No. She's always been firm from the beginning that she'd only write 7 books corresponding to the 7 years at Hogwarts. I think that's really part of the HP enchantment. It's one of the things that gave the series character.

5. Yes, 101%. She may not be the most original author, but she nevertheless presented old ideas in a refreshingly entertaining style. Her books cut boundaries -- age, political, economic, cultural even intellectual and religious boundaries. No other author has done that yet. Even without the media hype which certainly helped in the success, her books could stand alone.

6. Yes, of course. Same reasons as no. 5. The media & publishing hype might fool some, but certainly not all the readers. If the books are just a bunch of rubbish, no amount of hype and extravaganza would make it succeed.

7. Every Fred and George moment is unforgettable for me. But the one with the most impact would be that last page of the Battle of Hogwarts. With Percy (or Ron) shouting "No, no, no! No, Fred, No!".

8. Fred and George Weasley hands down. Dumbledore comes second. The twins because they're totally mental, they can turn even the most dangerous and serious moments hilarious. Dumbledore because of his wisdom, wit, poise even in the face of outright disrespect. I totally love those scenes when he always corrects Harry and say, "Professor Snape, Harry."

9. Before Book 7, it has been Dolores Jane Umbrdige. But after Book 7, she's been dethroned by Pansy Parkinson just with that line of "But he's here! Someone grab him!" The prat!

10. Excluding DH because as an ending it tied up the series, Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite. It's the only book where there was really no danger for Harry and the wizarding world because Sirius turned out to be innocent. Lord Voldemort was nowhere in sight. It's the only book where we felt good in the end because along with Harry, we discovered Sirius.



(Lord Voldemort gave you a star and I'm his most loyal follower, so I'll give you one, too!)

1.Yes, for a very long time I had been wondering how she (Rowling) was going to have Harry beat Voldemort in a way that seems believable. Threw out the novels she went out of her way to emphasize how powerful and intelligent Voldemort was, and how average Harry was in terms of skills, she also kept bringing up Harry's bravery and ability to love so I knew it was going to be some kind of plot device using those qualities. The end result was brilliant! The way he took in Lily's protection along with Harry's blood, the way Harry was willing to sacrifice himself for everyone fighting on his side, casting a protection on them simular to Lily's, the Elder wand loop hole, I loved it all......She could have done away with the crumby epilogue though.



2. Yes! A prequel taking place in the Marauders' era would be awesome but, I doubt she'd write it. On the bright side she is going to write an encyclopedia for the wizarding world.



3. I don't think it was a tragedy at all, it turned out incredibly well considering a war took place, it would have been more realistic and the impact more shocking if one of 'the golden trio'(Harry Hermione or Ron) were killed. :P



4. I have no idea but, the way she wrote the epilogue, dose give me the impression that she was rushing it.



5. She might have made some mistakes but, yes!



6.yes



7. When Dudley shook Harry's hand.



8. Two way tie between Neville Longbottom and Lord Voldemort



9. Rita Skeeter



10. 'Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire' I enjoyed all reading about all the tasks in the tri-wizard tournament, plus the end part where Harry finds himself in the cemetery, and Voldemort returns is what i consider to be the dividing marker where the books, take an abrupt turn towards the darker side, and as a result get even more interesting. :p

Interesting. Is the list detailed? Or just summed up? If the list isn't detailed, then it works for me. But if the list is supposedly written in it's entirety, and then Harry who has absolutely no witchcraft experience whatsoever purchases "basic potion incredients" then it doesn't make sense. I don't have a problem with the ones in the cupboard, like someone else said , you have Hermione explaining that *most* are in the cupboard. Again the only real issue I see is whether or not the list was written in full.

1. yes. but the ending, how the trio is all related, Victorie and Teddy are going out, how they run into malfoy and scorpius, it seemed too coincedential to me, like lalala we all live happily ever after, it wasn't that realistic to me. but it was fun to read

2. not a book about Harry and the trio, but i want a book about the Marauders after Hogwarts, when Voldemort first started gaining power, the whole secret-keeper thing... like a more detailed version of some parts of POA.

3. I'm glad she did, because that's how it is in the Wizarding world. It's voldemort, people are going to experience tragic events. wizard world is much more dangerous that the Muggle world.

4. i have a feeling she was rushing in book 7, so many random deaths and stuff.

5. i would. wonderful imagaination, and funny too

6. not just for children.

7. Snape;s worst memory. I've always been fancinated by the marauders, lily, and "snivelly" snape. the parts describing characters, Sirius's family, (Black's pure blood mania) and when he's with the Dursleys. Im not much for mystery and fantasy, and i don't know why i love Hp so much, so things like when he's with muggles, and the teasing of snape and the character development make it more readable for me.

8. REMUS LUPIN

9. I always hated Hermione until the fourth book., then i liked her ok. i don't know, maybe Vernon? Marge? all the characters are built so well, even if they're evil i can't hate them, except Rita Skeeter. b!tc#!

10. book 1, 3, 5, 6

Yes I most certainly am. I love the 19 years later ending and the couples were just perfect! It was a fantastic end to a wonderful series!



J.K has said she will not write another book and I don't want another unless it's written by her. If anyone else wrote on it just wouldn't be the same.



I don't think it had a tragic end. Some characters died and J.K had to do that to evoke some emotion, keep suspense and urgency, and to make it believable. Other than that I think it had happy ending. All you have to do is read the last chapter to see that. Everyone is waving goodbye to their kids and living happily ever after.



The series ended as Harry had completed his 7 years of schooling. It was not too short, it has been going for years. Any longer could have made the books become to long and drawn out which would have ruined everything.



I am not sure if you could consider J.K the best novelist today as I have never read any book from her other than HP. But HP sure is one good novel!



Harry Potter is the best childrens book today but it can be read by anyone! That's what makes it so good, i has captured the hearts of adults and kids alike!



I would have to say the part in the room of requirement in the seventh book. The part where Ron and Hermione finally kiss. It is just so sweet and funny. I had been wanting that to happen since the first book!



My favourite character is Hermione as she is smart and brave and I can relate so much to her. But I love all the characters.



My most hated character is probably Malfoy or Voldemort. Anyone evil!



Book 5 and 7 are my faves. Book 7 was just so good and wrapped up everything well. It left nearly no questions unanswered. Book 5 just had such a good story I couldn't put it down!

1. Yes, I was satisfied. But I thought the "Nineteen years later" part was horrible, although I hate to admit it ;)

2. I would love nothing more than 100 more Harry Potter books. They're awesome!

3. I don't think the ending was tragic. I think it had the perfect amount of twists and turns. And I think she tied all the loose ends up nicely. I'm a writer so I notice these things lol.

4. No. J.K announced at the publication of her 2nd H.P book that she would only go up to 7 books in the series. 7 being the most magical number.

5. I hold J.K in amazingly high esteem. Yes, she is one of the greatest novelists today.

6. I would recommend the H.P series to anyone, of any age.

7. The 7th book deff holds all the best moments. The other books were awesome but the 7th takesd the cake. My fav moment would have to be the end fighting scene in book 7th. The one when Harry finally finishes off Voldemort.

8. My favorite character is deff Harry. I love Hermione because she is like me, although.

9. Most hated? I would've said Sape but it turns out he was for "the greater good" loll. I'd have to say Crabbe or Goyle.

10. Deff book 7

1. YES! i couldn't have thought of the series ending any other way.

2. no....i just want J.K Rowling to write more books in general.

3. I don't think you can end the story happily...this book may be fantasy, but it shows that life isn't a fairytale. People die and you might not always have your happy ending.

4. No, she said from the beginning that there were 7 years at Hogwarts. She also said that she cried when she finished writing book 7.

5. I think she is...she is a very powerful author. Her words really pack in the emotion that her characters feel.

6. It definitely is, these book sell millions of copies and have fans all over the world. It is a book that reaches all ages and they will continue to do so....forever.

7. Ron and Hermione Kiss!!

8. Ron Weasley...he is too awesome!

9. Draco! I just don't like him at all

10. 7.....it just really ends the series in a way....that left me speechless.

1. Yes, I am satisfied with the ending. It was done well and answered the questions that had been building during all the books.

2. I rather enjoyed these books, yes, but Jo Rowling has said she will not be writing another one, at least not for 10 years or so, anyway.

3. I do not understand what you mean by ending in a tragic way. I thought the story ended quite well. I liked it.

4. She did not end it early or fast. I understand she worked on those stories for 16 years...! (since 1991). The story was not ended 'early' either, as she wrapped all the loose ends in the last 759 page book.

5. You didn't say The Best, so I don't have to make that decision. You asked if she is *one* of the best -so my answer is easily "Yes".

6. Again, "Yes." as long as you qualify the term children. I mean, after all, they are not right for very small children, at least not without guidance. What I mean here is that some of the things could be traumatic for the very small children.

7. There were many very good, well-written scenes, so I cannot single one out as better than others, though I lean towards the last book, since it answered all the questions.

8. Now that is another very hard question to answer, but I believe Hermione. She was well structured as a character and always stuck to her guns. The other characters were very good, also, so this is another question that is strictly opinion.

9. Most people would probably say Tom Riddle/Voldemort, but he was so evil that he was more to be pitied than hated... No, I think hatred is reserved for those who had a choice to do the right thing but chose the wrong side of the good vs. evil question.

We were supposed to hate Snape all along, especially after he killed Dumbledore. I would say he was the most hated during the unfolding of the story, but then we come to the ending and all is explained

10. I have pretty well already given this answer. In my mind book 7 was the best, mostly because of the way if tied up all the loose ends.

1. Yes, very.

2. No. Because the conflict will never be up to par with the previous one with Voldemort. I don't want to read a book about Harry's days in the ministry.

3. It wasn't too tragic, that's life! That's war! That's what happens in war. The people who died in the battle, especially the few we didn't expect to die, that's exactly how life can be. We don't know what will happen to our love ones. It's a sad lesson.

4. She never ended it too early nor too fast. She said from the get go that Harry Potter will be 7 books long and only seven books. She had the plot all planned from the beginning.

5. Not exactly the best, just popular. She's far from perfect.

6. In that case, maybe. I'd say it's one of the most FAVORITE children's book of today. Everyone's definition of "best" is different.

7. When Harry first witnesses Voldemort's resurrection in the graveyard.

8. Dolores Umbridge. She's the only character I felt loathing towards. I usually don't have such a strong emotion towards fictional people, and so that's why I love her at the same time, hehehe.

9. Dolores Umbridge again, only because she was so horrible as a human being.

10. Deathly Hallows. It was action-packed and had a little bit of romance in between; depressing, yet it ended with a happy ending. A nice combination for me.

1. No. It was so... no. Just no.

2. Yeah, that'd be great.

3. It wasn't tragic! That was the problem, it was too happy.

4. She didn't end it early. She had planned that there would only be 7 books. In case you didn't notice, 7 was an important number in those books.

5. No.

6. It's not only a children's book. It's for adults too. But yes, it is one of the best that I've read. ONE of the best. I can name a better one without even thinking.

7. The whole Ministry of Magic thing at the end of OotP where Sirius dies. *sob*

8. Sirius.

9. Lavender.

10. OotP. (5)

1. No. The epilogue was dream like

2.Not really. Maybe an add on about another character with a guest appearance from Harry.

3.It's not tragic unless you consider him marrying Ginny was all wrong.

4. Maybe she ran out of inspiration

5.no

6.no

7.flying

8.Draco Malfoy

9.Dudly
