NERD ALERT: Vol. 5,098,574,021
KSo I just finished "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," and I have some remaining questions:
1. If Harry is Teddy's godfather, and Teddy's parents were both killed, why didn't Harry raise Teddy? And is he a werewolf?
2. What was the baby thing in the place where Harry went after he died-but-did-not-die? Was that part of Voldemort's soul?
3. Did anyone else think that the final duel between Harry and Voldemort was a little short, except for the three hours of speechifying?
4. So Snape was good? Or Snape was just a selfish poopyhead avenging the death of the woman he loved but could never have? If Snape loved Lily Evans so much, couldn't he have been nicer to her son?
5. Draco... I thought he wasn't on Voldemort's side at the end of Half-Blood Prince, and he obviously wasn't on Voldemort's side when he was sitting around the table with his parents. What made him try to capture Harry again? And then when Harry saved him, he turned sides again and tried to be a Death Eater. Then Ron punched him - rock on - and then later, they all nodded cordially to each other at the train station. Gah! It makes me want to punch him again.
6. How is Dumbledore not dead? People keep saying that it looks like he's not dead. He looked pretty dead to me.
7. So Petunia thought her sister was a freak because she couldn't go to Hogwart's too? She was jealous? Does anyone else think that's kind of lame?
8. How did the sword get into the Sorting Hat when the goblin dude had stolen it in the vault at Gringott's?
9. How did Kreacher know where to go for the battle? How did he rally the other Hogwart's house elves? Why didn't Ron and Hermione tell them to evacuate like Ron suggested? And speaking of Kreacher, so... all it took for him to stop being a Dark elf who hates Muggle-borns was for someone to be nice to him? But wasn't Hermione nice to him? So it had to be a pure-blood wizard who was nice? Does that mean he still hates Muggle-borns? I'm really confused.
10. Why was the Resurrection stone in two pieces inside the Snitch?
11. Hey, how come we never heard about Aberforth as the barman in earlier books? How is he connected to that mirror thing? How did he send Dobby? I don't understand this part at all!
12. Why didn't Rowland kill off that jackass Percy instead of Fred?
13. Did anyone else think that maybe Dumbledore's father was a werewolf at one point in the book? Or was that just me? Because he "mauled" three Muggle children, and his sister was hardly seen, I thought maybe that he was bitten by a werewolf before Dumbledore's mother conceived his sister, Ariana... Okay, fine. I'm a lunatic. (See the pun I just made right there? No? Well check your Latin.)
14. Anyone else have any questions?
