I felt exactly the way you do when I finished the book.  I had gotten
so involved with the characters, I was as grief-stricken as if a real
person had died.  I hated JK Rowling and I vowed I would not bother to
read the seventh book.

However, after a few days when I began to re-read sections of the book
I started to think things are not as they seem.  This has been a theme
throughout the books. Seeing is not believing.  When you get a chance
to read the posts on this site, you will see what I mean.

I also went back and re-read the Mugglenet interview with Rowling. 
The first time I read it I thought she was a smart-aleck millionairess
who'd managed put over one big joke on the world, so that's what I
read into the interview.  When I read it again a couple of days ago I
had a completely different impression.  I think the story will end in
a way that makes moral sense, even if the ending is not exactly what
each individual reader wishes for.
