Too quick and a sell out

I probably won't check any posts until I've finished the book, but I
only have 50 or 60 pages left and I really feel betrayed.  I won't
include spoilers, but I feel cheated.  This book should have been 2
books with more detail.  I don't understand why 7 is such a magical
number with authors, but I don't care how many books it takes....tell
the story.  Don't sell out at the end because you have made your
fortune.

Does anyone else feel this way?  Empty deaths for shock and
effect....no back stories to explain the over simplified plot devices.  The previous 6 books were brilliant.  Did she grow so tired of Harry and those we love so much that she just did whatever to get away from it?  I hear she cried. Well so did those dedicated fans who expected the same thoughtfulness, consideration, and love that the other books contained.  There better be one hell of an epilogue to make up for the shabby treatment of the characters I've come to love and cherish so much.  This book hurt my heart.  It's like losing friends for no other cause but financial gain.  Nothing noble there.  And to me, these characters were noble.
