Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows finds Harry and the Golden trio struggling to find the Horcruxes while learning more about Dumbledore and the Deathly Hallows. I thought it was one if not the best Harry Potter book in the series. But there were some things that I didn't like or was confused about. 
First, why did Hermione lash out at Ron like that when he returned? I know she is angry, but that seemed a little excessive. 
Next, I was wondering why the character changes with Lupin.

He was embarrassed that he and Tonks were going to have a baby that was possibly going to be a werewolf, because Tonk's family doesn't really like werewolves, so instead of being there for Tonks, he decides he is going to run away with a bunch of seventeen-year-olds!!

Gladly he had a character change and he became more loyal.

Also, Tonks' and Lupin's death were unnecessary and didn't add anything to the story, we just had to accept that they were dead.

 
Speaking of character changes, why did she make Dumbledore more of an anti-hero? Was it that J.K. Rowling wanted him to be a hero, but didn't want him to be a hero, so instead, make him an anti-hero? I feel like she wrote Snape like that. It felt like she didn't want us to like him, and then, oh, he redeemed himself in the last book because

we get to see his memories after he dies,

after making him an unlikeable character for 6 whole books. I don't know if it's me, but this stuff is kind of icky to me.
