i honestly really liked the 7th book but i can definitely see why other people wouldn't... i love the idea of the deathly hallows but it was really rushed. or rather, i love the symbolism of harry becoming the "master of death". i think it would have worked much better if the hallows had been established earlier, like maybe in the 6th book, or if there had been another book. harry did need the character growth he got over the 7th book before he could accept his mortality and sacrifice himself willingly, and i think he did need to make the choice between hallows and horcruxes and basically not make dumbledore's mistakes... it was just so rushed that it's really easy to miss all the great ideas JKR packed into that book and it just leaves you kinda dizzy. it feels, to me, like she was rushing to get all her ideas out because it was the last book, even though that should be a sign that she needs to write more books... i dunno, this is a really rambley comment, sorry.
