Everyone marrying their highschool sweethearts is the most implausible thing ever. And it is one of those things I am completely convinced can't happen in real life. I did actually like the epilouge though actually. I am one of the few (possibly it was just my normal reaction to everybody hating it must obviously mean that I will love it). But it was a book where everybody died! I needed something completely implausible and fairy tale-ish happily ever after to end it all.

I could totally have gotten behind Sirius/Lupin too. But that's kind of unsurprising. XD But yes, I like my protagonists romance-free! It just makes it all so much easier to read! They focus on the plot and to save the world and the other characters can deal with the romance!
