David:

I don't care really about the ships, as they're only a diversion to 
the main plot-line of Harry vs. LV. I do agree with you that the H-G 
relationship went seemingly 'deep' very quickly. I had the same 
impression though of much of the book, almost as if it was a rushed 
effort. She seemed determined to ensure this book was shorter, even 
if it compromised the over-all product. I can only hope #7 is not 
short-changed. JMHO of course.
