also hadn't spotted the 'eyes' thing, but it makes perfect sense.
The bit that made me tearful out of all proportion was Hermione charming her parents so that they got new names, moved to Australia and didn't know they had a daughter. That's one of the bravest moments in the book.
Though I did punch the air when she called Ron an arse.
Would have liked a bit more background in the Epilogue. So how does Harry make a living? (Not that he'd need to, with his inheritances.) Is he the new Gideon Lockhart?
And I'm wondering if Narcissa's maternal instinct overpowering her loyalty to Voldemort is a deliberate echo of Lily's maternal love. In which case it could have been made more of. But there's so much else one could say that about.
