The last horcrux is inside Harry.../Snape/ and more

1. I agree that the finial Horcrux is in Harry.

2. I think that Snape is still working for DD. IMO Snape told DD 
about the vow and they are trying to keep Draco from becoming a 
killer. They are trying to save his soul, while they still can. I 
was very surprised to see that Draco didn't have it in him to kill. 
Maybe he is the good Slytherin you all are looking for.  Also I 
think that Snape might have some *special* feelings for Narcissus. 
He seemed very happy to see her. And she really loves her son. Are 
we sure that she is a DE herself. Yes, her husband is and her sister 
is, but maybe she isn't???  Do all those that agree with or follow 
LV become DE??  I can't remember if it says in other books that she 
is a DE. 

3. I was rather surprised that Snape got the DADA position, and that 
he is the HBP, and that the HBP does not mean a real prince!! Kinda 
shoots some of my ideas all to

I enjoyed the Spinners End chapter best. Thought it was very well 
written and, of course, explained some of the mystery of the hands 
we saw on the cover of the UK book. I enjoyed seeing the two sister 
interacting, and the almost tenderness that Snape shows.

Chapter I. was interesting. I wondered which country the *president* 
was from. Could be U.S. or France.  Interesting bit of author 
comment, I think. (being a Democrat from the U.S., I like to think 
that it was the U.S. president.)

I liked the fact that unlike the 2-5th books, the beginning didn't 
drag. I thought it started to drag a bit in the middle with all of 
the Quidditch and *shipping* stuff.  I was a bit disappointed in the 
author for putting all of the shipping stuff in there. It was as if 
she was trying to pacify the readers who wanted to see that, and I 
don't think that she should have written anything that she did not 
originally intend to write.
 
Course I was right about all of the relationships, so that is 
good!  ;-)  Ya, Lupin in my man!!  And Luna and Neville will marry 
and live happy ever after too. Neville will be a Herbologist. 

I am broken hearted about DD.  I am in denial too.  I held out some 
hope for him not really being dead, but when his portrait was 
hanging on the wall...  well I can't even type this without crying.  
Part of me hates you all for predicting it, and her for killing him 
off.  I hate this *the old mentor must die so the hero can go on by 
himself* crap. OK so it is a classic hero story or something, that 
doesn't mean that I have to like it.  I am just SO depressed!!!  I 
really love DD.  :-(
