Now, I did finish HBP, and I've been reading meta all day and last night, many links provided by
--The scariest scene for me was Harry force feeding the potion to Dumbledore. It was so horrible, having to cause pain to someone you love, practically torture them, because you have to. That was definately making me cry, so did Dumbledore's funeral, and I loved that Harry was sort of making jokes to himself and remembering Dumbledore at that point.
--Dumbledore was awesome, and funny, and I really enjoyed him and Harry together.
--At first I liked Snape being evil, then at the end I decided he isn't really, and that's pretty interesting.
--I'm starting to think JKR just sucks at romances. Her few sweet scenes like Bill/Fleur in the hospital, and some other ones, were marred by the utter crap. I will never forgive Harry's creature and the conga in his insides. Sorry, never.
--Horcruxes seem like Robin Hobb and the whole memories thing, kinda like with Kennit and all that. Only different. And dude, Marshes of the Dead.
--Regarding Tonks/Lupin--I still think Remus was with Sirus before he died. I also think Tonks was out of wack because he wouldn't go out with her while at the same time worried because he was in serious danger among the werewolves. I don't think she was simpley pining for the love of a man, so her behaviour makes sense to me.
EDIT: Luna and Harry going to a party was the best thing ever!
That's all my thoughts for now...
