Discussion Question #4
Here is a tough one for you. If you could change one thing in the Harry Potter books, what would it be and why?

I would replace the epilogue with an 8th book, possibly from Hermione's PoV so that the plot could return to the familiar Hogwarts grounds. I want to know too much more information. What kind of upheaval did the Ministry go through? What did Hogwarts do about the following school year? HP and RW didn't return to school but HG did, who did she socialize with and how did they stay in contact? How did everyone get set on their career paths? If we're going to stick with the ships that eventually sail in the epilogue then I want to see significant development in them (this is my main gripe with HP/GW and HG/RW, I don't feel like we've seen them enough together *as a couple*).

There's a lot more than this, but this gets it started. I keep deluding myself we'll get some answers along these lines whenever Pottermore gets running again **pokes pink site with a stick**

And another thing!

Ok so my "one thing" is kinda a lot of things so let me try for something smaller.

If the epilogue must remain, if Snape/Remus/hedwig/Fred/etc. must stay dead, then I just want to see Snape show up at the Resurrection Stone scene.

YES. I was irritated that he wasn't there if he was really dead.
