I figured that Godric's sword coming out of the hat was just proof that it was tied to him and his legacy and not to the goblins, simply because they made it. The goblin definitely took the sword, but it returned to GOdric's heirs in their time of need. And to Neville! Oh I was soooo happy reading about him and how he finally came into his own. I always loved the character.

To be fair, I can't think of anything in the book I wasn't happy or excited to read about (even hte deaths were completely understandable and meaningful, if sad).

I do wish the epilogue had more detail- to be honest I was kind of puzzled by it- I KNOW that JK has in her head far, far more detail about these characters than she has ever shared in the books. She has to know what these characters are doing in 19 years. Why wouldn't she tell us? Is there going to be another book?

Things that made me go hmm....
