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 change one thing. It's big, but it's not the Epilogue. I can happily live with EWE fics, and I'd hate to lose the kids.

I'd change DH to tell all the action taking part in Hogwarts from another pov than Harry's. I realise that JK did not want to lose Harry's as the main narrator but plot-wise, it would have made so much more sense to have the Hogwarts parts of DH be told by a narrator who was involved. The pov could have been Ginny (to get a girl's pov for a change) or Luna, or Neville or even Draco (would have been interesting to get a Death Eater's pov, too). JK would have gone for Neville, most likely, and it could have worked awesomely. It is my humble opinion that DH would have been a better book if we were allowed to see the Hogwarts action live, and not be told in hindsight.
