Oh my goodness, I feel you on the lacking patience for 'drama and purity nonsense' -- one of the reasons I'm here on DW is to find at least *some* kind of respite from *cough* tumblr *cough*. :p
And I'm so curious re: what you said about only accepting the first four HP books as canon and ignoring the films. I personally loathe the HP films and have never acknowledged them. I also recall being extremely devastated by the death of a certain character in Book Five, though I did continue with the rest of the series afterward. I can't presume to know what your own reasons behind feeling this way are of course, but colour me intrigued. :)
