Tiffany:

I loved how Harry came to age & realized his ideas on Slytherin in HBP 
were based on biases & previous encounters, so he thought the 
Slytherins were the worst of all the houses.  I actually thought that 
Harry in DH did pretty admirably in terms of moral conduct.  He may 
have used some Unforgivables in the battle, but he was fighting for his 
life.  The use of the dark arts & black magic by Gryffindors in DH 
wasn't a big deal to me because the fate of both the WW & Potterverse 
was at stake.  I just wished JKR would've done better at keeping her 
facts straight in DH, but the theme & element development wasn't hurt 
enough to be a big issue for me.
