Thoughts on the ending, after sleep

Harry is wrong.

He seems to be under the impression that he's going to wander the world solo and hunt down the Horcruxes all by himself.

He's not going to do this. He can't do this. He doesn't have what it takes to do this.

And by "doesn't have what it takes" I don't mean intestinal fortitude and magical abilities. I mean intelligence (in the spy sense of the word, not the brain sense of the word) and research skills. Harry has no idea whatsoever where the Horcruxes are located and didn't logic out the location of any of the previous ones. In fact, he still has rather limited knowledge of the wizarding world.

The next book is probably going to start with someone talking some sense into him and him teaming up with the Order.
