I don't think there's going to be a good place for the rest of the book.
There really isn't, although as transition points go, this is a pretty good one.
Also, I can kill you with my brain.

The Buffista Book Club: the Harry Potter iteration
This thread is a focused discussion group. Please see the first post below for the current topic and upcoming book discussions. While natter will inevitably happen, we encourage you to treat this like a virtual book club and try to keep your posts in that spirit.
By consensus, this thread is reopened specifically to discuss Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It will be closed again once that discussion has run its course.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

He uses it and his Father, Mother, Lupin, and Sirius all appear. No Dumbledore though, I can understand why at this point. The bit with Lupin kinda got to me along with his Mother telling him how brave Harry had been.

Yeah, that's the bit that had me sobbing uncontrollably.

His father and mother have been dead for the whole series, so although it's touching that they're there to support him (and have really always been a presence in the books, like Philosopher's Stone and Goblet of Fire), it's Sirius and Remus who just kill me. My poor guys.

Sirius being there ripped me open. (Possibly because I was still in denial that he was dead.)

I started crying as soon as he whispered to the Snitch, "I am about to die." Telling his family to "Stay with me," and having them around him as a virtual Patronus just kept the tears flowing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
