The end was definitely deflating. I think JK Rowling's lack of writing education finally caught up with her as the ending just kind of happened in the last 20 or 30 pages of a 700+ page book.
For those of you who haven't read but want the spoilers, here's who dies in the last book.
Fred Weasley, Mad-Eye, Remus Lupin, and Tonks from the "good" side all die.
Voldemort is killed by his own killing curse reflected back at him when attempting to curse Harry with Harry's own wand (not the phoenix core one, but a new wand that's supposedly unbeatable).
Snape was a good guy after all, Dumbledore was going to die anyway because of his cursed hand so he told Snape to kill him so that the Elder wand would pass to Snape. Snape is killed by Nagini in yet another anti-climatic scene.
The epilogue was incredibly cheesy and really shows that it was written years ago.
