Right on, Kelley.

Lots of H/Hers don't want to see R/H because OBHWF (that's One Big 
Happy Weasley Family, newbies) is too sappy/cliched.

Lots of R/Hers don't want to see H/H because HGTG (Hero Gets the Girl) 
is too sappy/cliched.

Fear not, shippers and sap-o-phobes of all descriptions!  Let us go 
boldly forth in the faith that our Jo will resist cliche, whatever 
romances happen or fail to happen.  We can all relax and enjoy this 
cruise and know that she'll write whatever she writes with 
that witching combination of unpredictability and inevitability that 
she's brought to so many twists *and* emotional scenes so far.
