I'd personally like to see a five-volume set for Book 7. Somehow, though, I doubt that's going to happen.

First, I listened to the book rather than reading it and I'm not sure that Snape did a bad thing in killing Dumbledore. I haven't read much here on the other things posted but here are my thoughts which I didn't discussed more in the book. Remember Dumbledore being so thirsty after he drank the potion and Harry trying to create water in the goblet with his wand but that it kept disappearing. Then, he finally took some water from the lake that Dumbledore drank. I wonder if Dumbledore was dying anyway and that he was turning into an inferi? Dumbledore may have known this and was actually pleading to Snape for a quicker death to come. And, since Dumbledore knew what Draco was up to all along, I believe that he had full knowledge of Snape's unbreakable curse and that he wanted Draco protected with Snape having the assignment. I think there is much more with the Draco, Snape, and Potter stories. I think some interesting things may come out about Lilly & James later as well as Vernon & Petunia. Also, if Snape was all bad, he could've done a lot more damage when leaving the castle. Instead, he was only trying to defend himself and get Draco out. He told the other Death Eaters to leave Harry because Voldemort wanted to kill him but even though he knew it was Draco's mission to kill Dumbledore, he killed Dumbledore anyway. Something doesn't make sense there. Why follow one order but not another? Dumbledore was no threat to Draco so there was no need for Snape to protect him.

I'd like to know the "real" story of why Dumbledore trusted Snape implicitly. Harry offers his reason but I don't recall Dumbledore ever stating that was indeed the reason.

I'm guessing Harry and Jenny will "stay" together and I do think Ron & Hermione will eventually become a couple.

Since Dumbledore told Harry to only share information on Horcruxes with Ron & Hermione, I think that sets the stage in that they will be with him to search for the remaining horcruxes.

Who was RAB? And, did he or she destroy/obtain the other horcruxes? If it was Regulus, I'm betting there will be some horcruxes stored in the Black house that Harry inherited and I'm betting that Creature, the house elf, knows something about them. I also wonder if Harry is a living horcrux? Kind of makes you think about the prophecy of one not being able to live while the other survives, doesn't it?

Will Voldemort kill Draco since he did not kill Dumbledore himself? Does Snape's unbreakable vow mean that he will also have to fight Voldemort if Voldemort tries to kill Draco?

Is there something more with the vampires? They were briefly touched upon in this book. I was wondering if it was leading to something more.

Why did Snape get his panties in such a wad by Harry calling him a coward at the end?

So much more.....that's all I have time to jot down for now.
