I thought that Hagrid was dead but it turned out he wasn't. Go figure.:rolleyes:
I wonder which characters she intended not to kill but Rowling had to.
I think that Dobby was an unnecessary kill.
Discuss the book and what you thought here!

SPOILER ALERT (In a way..)
Harry, Ron and Hermione are in Sirius Black's old house, that he left Harry in his will, and they just sent Kreacher to find the person who has the locket with one of the Horcruxses in it.

This takes place when Harry is eighteen, and the Crabbe in this story is Vincent Crabbe's cousin.

Harry Potter and the Shadow Avengers. By: Rigs
Harry Potter was sleeping in his home in Godric’s Hallow. Nobody was there, and all was quiet. Little did he know that miles away from this safe suburban home, a group of weary Death Eaters were creating a conspiracy.
Indeed, somewhere in a small village, three men were having a discussion inside a muddy, deserted hut. There names were Draco Malfoy, Samson Fennigs, and Crowley Crabbe. The room filled with a musty air as Malfoy paced down the hall, stroking a dark crimson snake.
“It’s been eighteen years, and I still have not served my purpose to the Lord. But how? How can I serve him? What is there to be done for a man of great accomplishment?”
Fennigs, a dark-skinned man of about twenty, spoke up.
“Draco, how many times must we explain? He is dead. Volde-”
“Don’t you dare speak his name, you despicable oaf! You were on Potter’s side.”
Malfoy said the word “Potter” with a hateful glare, as if this unfortunate boy was no more than a slobbering bull hound. In mid-step, Malfoy stopped and thought over what he had just said.
“Would it be considered a good deed for the fallen master if I killed Potter?”
At these words, Crabbe, who was usually quite silent, snorted. He had been a second-cousin of one of Malfoy’s old school friends, and he was proud to be so. His cousin had died fighting for Lord Voldemort, and this made him want to live up to Vincent Crabbe’s assistance to the Lord.
“You think my ideas are funny, do you Crowley? I reckon you are too cowardly to finish your cousin’s work.”
Crabbe instantly stopped. He had never known what his cousin had accomplished, and he was yearning to finally find out.
One problem: Crabbe died in the 7th book. OH! SPOILER!

Severus Snape is on Harry's side!
Harry is Horcrux Number 7
Hermione marries Ron and Harry marries Ginny.
~End of spoilers~
I would rate it an 8/10. The ending isn't the greatest that I would of hoped. I thought maybe that J.K. Rowling would not make it so much like a fairy tale, where the good always wins and the bad is defeated.

I dont really care for harry potter books. When I was in fourth grade I liked them, i read the first 4 and Wished it was real, and then by fifth I didnt like them anymore.( im now in eighth grade so you can see how far ive grown apart from them.)
Ps. Whenever the movie comes out to this one ill probably watch it since there are that many deaths. Because I like to see Ron freak out. :D

I've never actually read any of the books. Ever since I was a kid, people said Harry Potter books we're too confusing (short intension spans).
But, I have watched all the movies! Does that seem right to you?
I decided to see for myself, I got my mom to buy me the latest and final Harry Potter book, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows",
I've yet to read it yet because 1. I'm lazy, 2. I've been trying to finsih my extremely boring Summer Reading books first.
However, people say its good so I'm looking forward to reading it.

The book was absolutely outstanding! I loved it. The storyline was well put and the way she worked around the horcruxes with the deathly hallows was amazing!
Dont you think that Lupin and Tonks were bound to die once Harry was told he was godfather. It was very well foreshadowed, since it happened to James and Lily Potter.

Nineteen years later, Harry is married to Ginny Weasley, and they have three children: James, Albus Severus, and Lily. Ron and Hermione are also married and have two children, Rose and Hugo. The families meet at King's Cross station, where a nervous Albus is departing for his first year at Hogwarts. James, the eldest, is already familiar with school while Lily will start in two years' time. Harry's nineteen-year-old godson, Teddy Lupin, is found kissing Victoire Weasley (Bill and Fleur's daughter) in a train compartment. Teddy is apparently very close to the Potters, with Harry remarking, "He already comes round for dinner about four times a week." Harry spots Draco Malfoy and his unnamed wife with their son, Scorpius; Malfoy acknowledges Harry with a curt nod, then turns away. Harry comforts Albus, who is worried he will be sorted into Slytherin, by telling him that his namesake, Severus Snape, was a Slytherin and the bravest man he ever met. He adds that the sorting hat takes one's own choice into account. Neville Longbottom is now the Hogwarts Herbology professor and is close friends with Harry. The book concludes with the words: "The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years. All was well."

I agree with the main character dieing thing, but she didn't jump through quickly through the book, only some parts. If she streached out every part of the book, it would've gotten boring.

I think it was a great and noble death for Dobby. I would have prefered for Kreacher to die though. It would be just as tragic, because Kreacher was starting to be nice to Harry. Here's a question to think about; did Harry really die and come back to like if he didn't die then what did happen? I think this is a subject we could seriously deabate about forever, because there really is no asnwer, it is up to your imagination. Sometimes thinks are great because they are left unanswered. The book was great! Action packed all the way through! I give it a 10/10. It was a fitting end to the Harry Potter series.
