I want to re-read the HBP but am too traumatized .
The new title sounds ominous.

Really too ominous. I was thinking it sounded like finality but not too scary. I'm just so excited. A friend and I have had a friendly argument going about whether Snape is bad or good ( I say good for many reasons) and it'll be nice to settle it. I just hope I can accept it if he turns otu to be a bad guy. It might break my heart. I can deal with Dumbledore's death, but Snape is truly a traitor would just about kill me:(

I never liked him, so I want to see him fry for what he did.I want Sirius to come back & kick his ass.
I so don't want to believe that the next book will be the last.

I'm with you, he's good... if he was bad there would be no point in the whole first chapter, he would have killed Dumbledore anyway! Plus he reacts so badly when Harry calls him a coward... i.e is ashamed he killed Dumbledore to save his own life.
My money is on Draco Malfoy doing something good/noble in the last book aswell.
Of course, there are going to be more deaths, aren't there? You know, as in PLURAL characters dying. It will be a traumatic experience for all...

And so, what started out as a wonderful book series, then crashed and burned, will be ending soon. Thank goodness.

Hmm... I agree with you a little... I didn't like it when Harry stated getting all 'OHMIGOD IM AN ANGRY SHOUTY TEEN WHO NOBODY UNDERSTANDS'
And recently I think ole' J.K has been writing a lot more with a film script in mind. But I'm still looking forwards to the next book

I don't know what she's been writing with in mind, but every relationship choice she's made makes me cringe and want to bang my head against a wall. Plus, all the character transformations are terribly unsatisfactory, and don't have the same quality to them as the first two books. I won't even touch the 4th book anymore, because the writing was bad enough the first time.
And, it's not that none of her ideas are good - because they are pretty good - but the quality of writing seems to have petered out.
Long story short, Harry should die, and Voldemort should take over the world, because that would be more realistic than what I think she's going to do.

Hmm since I am a huge fan, I really can't agree. I work all day every day with teenagers( I'm a teacher) and I'd say her "transformation" of the characters is spot on. Most kids go through a whiney self absorb why is everyone picking on me phase ( annoying but true) and the development of relationships is , to my mind very realistic with what I see among my students.
I just can't wait to see what happens next. Though she has hinted repeatedly that she is killing Harry so I'm not sure why you think she won't.

Well, as a teenager myself, I have to respectfully disagree.

It's probably just that I haven't read the books enough to see anything, but I've had no indications from the books that Harry is going to die. Or, at least, if he does, that evil will control the world. At the heart of it, the Harry Potter books are very romantic that way.
