I was very satisfied with the book. However, I do have many of the same quibbles that have been previously mentioned. Most of them just relate to wanting to know more about my favorite characters - Luna, Neville, George, Prof. McG, etc.

I will say that with all of the warnings by JKR I had a lot of fears of what would happen in the book. This could be another thread, but I can't start them at this point.

Anyway, though I had a little bit of worry that HP wouldn't make it I figured he would. I was really much more concerned that Hagrid or Ron would bite the dust. I liked Tonk and Lupin, but I really didn't have as much emotion about their deaths. Dobby, of course was a great loss. But as I say, I was most afraid of a very painful (and for me tearfilled) death scene with Hagrid.
