Re: Epilogues in fiction

I don't hate them. I think they provide closure. I really didn't hate Harry Potter's epilogue at all, although I think the book would have been stronger without it. I guess it was more for Rowling's sake, than ours. So people would leave her alone about where they ended up. So she could canonize what she wanted to happen to these characters.

But I do tend to find them a bit trite. The Hunger Games' epilogue felt kind of distasteful to me.

(anon under you)

Yes, exactly! I liked Harry Potter's epilogue and that it gave closure, even though it is weaker than the rest of the book. Mockingjay's epilogue felt so out of place... Although admittedly, there are many things wrong with the rest of the book as well.

Seconding "I didn't think Harry Potter's epilogue was that bad". I kind of liked it. I also agree it would have been stronger had it just ended with Harry falling asleep in his bed after saving the world, but overall, the epilogue didn't bother me at all.
