J.K. Rowling isn't sure she ended 'Harry Potter' in the right way.
The author concluded her hugely successful series of books about the boy wizard with his best friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley married - which upset many fans who thought Harry should have got with Hermione - and now she's not sure if that was the right decision.

She told Wonderland magazine: ''For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron.
''I know, I'm sorry, I can hear the rage and fury it might cause some fans, but if I'm absolutely honest, distance has given me perspective on that. It was a choice I made for very personal reasons, not for reasons of credibility.

''Am I breaking people's hearts by saying this? I hope not.''

The 'Harry Potter' novels were made into a hugely successful series of films starring Daniel Radcliffe as the boy Wizard, Rupert Grint as Ron and Emma Watson as Hermione, and the latter echoes Rowling's thoughts.

She said: ''I think there are fans out there who know that too and who wonder whether Ron would have really been able to make her happy.''

I think the ending was perfect, there was no need to change it

She built up the romance between Ron and Hermione. It turned out fine. Though I did think it'd be Harry and Hermione.

I would of preferred Draco and Hermione though I aint bothered

Yes because we really needed the main male character falling in love with the main female character.

Not like we don't see that already in everyday literature.

Plus, it's not like Ron/Hermione was a sudden thing. There are subtle little hints throughout and there was a build up.

Cry some more that your ship didn't sail, Harry/Hermione shippers.

That would've been good. I liked Ron. But for the generation that Harry Potter was in, it would've been amazing to see a more major death. So killing one of the main three would've been good. So long as it was towards the end.

Yea she said she was feeling down or something contemplated killing Ron off Funny Thankfully she didn't. Though it would of added something more to the movies.

I mean she did build up the two relationships between Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione, so in the end it didn't seem so bad when they got married to their sweethearts.
