In this Blog post I will talk about the end of the book. After returning from a long journey trying to destroy a Horcrux (I have no clue how to spell it, OK?), Harry and a weakened Dumbeldore find out that Hogwarts had been attacked by Death Eaters!! :(
Eventually during a fight, Dumbledore gets thrown off a tower after Avadakadavra--the killing curse--is used on him by Severus Snape. It was supposed to actually be Malfoy, believe it or not, he had never actually killed someone and he felt like he just couldn't do it.
Dumbledore was a very important person so this is very, very significant. With Dumbledore not there, Harry will have no one as important as him to help him. When I was reading the book, I couldn't believe Dumbledore was dead! He was quite a powerful wizard.
Dumbledore had rescued Harry and no there was no one to do that. Which is very significant to Harry. I don't know if Harry will be strong enough to defeat Voldemort without Dumbledore's help. Before when Harry reached a stumbling block, Dumbledore would step in and help him, but now there is no Dumbledore to do that. In this book, at the end, Harry says that he won't be going back to Hogwarts because he'll be trying to destroy horcruxes and Voldemort. Ron and Hermione say that they won't go back to school if he won't--so Harry won't totally be on his own. But they're young witches and wizards too. So he doesn't have anyone with much experience following his path with him.
By the way, Harry later discovers that Snape was the Half Blood Prince. So the theory that Hermione earlier placed was correct.
