This week's Booking Through Thursday question was
"If you could rewrite the ending of any book, which book would it be?"
Interesting question, but actually I couldn’t think of any book I’d really like to rewrite the ending of. There may have been books I felt that way about, just after reading them, but none pop into mind just now. Either I’ve forgotten, or the problem went deeper than just changing the ending!
However, the question did remind me of heated discussions about the last book in the Harry Potter series (Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, 2007). Reading some of the other BTT-comments, I saw that I wasn’t the only one. So I decided to expand a little on that; digging out some comments that I wrote in a HP discussion forum about six months after the publication. If you're interested, pop over to Through My Spectrespecs (= my own, not very frequently updated Harry Potter blog).

I've read too many books, and am too old to remember most now!!! But there were quite a few that I would have liked to change to a happy ending! But then, that is always so boring, becuase it is always expected, isn't it?
I'm a big fan of happy endings. ;)
