YES YES YES!!!  I thought this ending was SO subpar.   JK's endings have 
always been, in my opinion, what keeps these books going.  In each of the 
preceeding books, you're left with such a strong ending and they're always so 
visual and beautifully written.  The best so far has undoubtedly been the Priori 
Incantatem scene in GoF, you can totally see whats going on in your mind.  
The end of OOP was a comparative letdown.  Truthfully, I don't think I could 
give you a very accurate description of what happened at the MoM, and it 
wasn't for lack of attentive reading.  Any other thoughts?

I kind of thought I was in the middle of some Scooby Doo cartoon.  All the running around and tossing the prophecy just out of the reach of the bad guys.  Other than that one part I loved the rest of the book.   -Lezlie
