Yeah, the childrens' names were too sentimental, to the point of almost being sappy.

The epilogue was OK, nothing more. From the way she worded it, that she would tie up all ends to make sure no one wrote another book after her about Harry Potter (Like Gone with the Wind), I assumed that everything would be answered, as opposed for all the readers to guess what would happen. Although a couple of days before the book was released, the never say never comment was said regarding future books.

As for predictions, Snape and Lily, Snape killing Dumbledore, it was kinda predictable. The whole not so Jesus like innocent Dumbledore was a huge shocker....my heart was beating hard at that one point, and the Harry a Horcrux was pretty surprising as I remember hearing her say that he wasn't one.

And why did she have to kill Hedwig? Dobby I can understand, but Hedwig??

And the Tiara and locket seemed like good candidates for Horcruxes to me before I read the book.
