I thought JKR made a mistake with using the tired old "No one believes anything Harry says" plot line yet again. I mean, after five years of being thought wrong and proven right again and again...why would ANYONE, but especially his best friends and mentor NOT believe what he tells them about things? I thought it was really unlikely that Dumbledore would not know what Draco was up to.

Speaking of Draco, I also found it unlikely that Narcissa would leave him at Hogwarts, in spite of what the Dark Lord wanted. JKR should know how a mother would react to her child being put in to that kind of danger...which she tried to address with the "Unbreakable Vow" at the beginning, but I didn't buy it that Narcissa would go to those lengths and then just leave Draco at school and the mercy of the Dark Lord.

I (of course) hated that Snape killed Dumbledore and especially because I feel that it was all pre-arranged. I hated Slughorn as a character and a teacher. I thought the whole idea of Stan being chucked into Azkaban was ridiculous and that the Ministry wouldn't release him to get Harry's endorsement unbelieveable. Like you, I thought the Lupin/Tonks pairing was sort of thrown in there willy-nilly without any previous hints that there was warm feelings on either side. (And I hate to say it, but I agree that it was done to try to stop the whole "Lupin is gay" thing going on in fandom.) I didn't like it that the kids didn't keep up with the "DA". I hated the whole "Won-Won" thing. The sixteen-year-olds that I know don't talk or act like that...

I'm sure there's more, but I guess you get the idea.
