Probably the best HP book; the direct absence of their studying struggles made this book better than the others.

Also, this book makes you appreciate Snape a hell lot more (not that we weren't expecting it)

What happened at those gatherings at the big bookstores?

Because there were hundreds of cars parked in front of Barnes N Noble and I read that Borders wanted to host a "Snape Debate"...

IT'S SO FCKING GOOD
I SPENT 7 HOURS STRAIGHT TO READ IT! biggrin , WORTH EVERY SECOND!!!!!!!!
so sad that this is the last book T_T.........J K rowling deserves every penny she collects from the release......so much twists, tragedy, and despair.....and so many happy moments too bigrazz ....I LOVE ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!

Quote from libra_86930
yeah, thats what happened,
I like ginnyxharry, they make a cute couple... but I cant help noticing that there were somethings that JK rowling said would be in it but wasnt really in the book..
Spoiler (highlight to view)
like about harry hving lily's eyes are important , it wasnt important at all , about the 2way mirror being important,and also about the reason sirius and dumbledore had to die, no mention of it was in the bok, but she really does tie the loose ends like showing how the bloody baron died, about snape's memories in book 5
]thats what I like about her ^^ she puts in tiny little things in the prequels before revealing it to be what it was really for


PS: in case you haven't notice,

Spoiler (highlight to view)
snape told harry to look at him before he dies, because snape loved lily evans, also, snape had kept on loving her for all these years (the silver doe patronus) and so looking at harry's eyes makes reminds him of lily, so he had protected harry through lots of danger....2 way mirror = VERY IMPORTANT, because dumbledore's brother had used it to check up on harry and sent dobby to rescue him on time (poor dobby T_T, a bit creepy in the movie, and such a memorable little house-elf T_T, i'll miss him alot)


snape was probably the most shocking thing to me....i cried alot on the part where his memory with lily comes in

You might not be once you read the epilogue. *Shudders* Not that anything bad happens, some people actually like it.

I haven't boughtthe book because it isn't going to be released in finnish (my native language) in a while. If i see it in a bookstore in english i might by it nut i'm not really a fanatic Potter fan so it's not that big of a deal if i have to wait... And you can get it from the library...for free!!! (but you miss the chance to discuss "the newest potter book" with everyone biggrin

you know something i dont know if im sad or happy that my parents bought the book as a surprise. I dont think my parents even knew that the book was coming out till today but they suddenly returned from shopping with it. this was a wonder because i never even asked them for it nor even hinted that i wanted it, but they got it for me. after i got it i went into my room and stared at it for an hour asking myself why i felt so insecure and after a while i realized i was losing a big part of my childhood by finish reading this book. After that i tried starting to read but i cant get the momentum going its saddening that with every page i read im a page closer to finishing it
