Quote from Veltwolfsleer

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

yea....some people does have that feeling....the first time i've read harry potter was when i'm 7 or something.....it's been 7 years so far for me, and even though everything is stays the same after i finish the series, a part of my childhood had closed, and i can only think and remember what happened now, without the thrills of my first time reading it.....i'll miss it a lot.....j k rowling had gave us more than just an action, adventure, and tragedy....she gave us a momentum of our childhood 😎

T'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!!!!!!!!!

PS: in case you haven't notice,

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

I didnt think that was very important, I thought it was pretty obvious to me that snape liked lily(I dunno.. somewhere in my twisted mind I already guessed) I guess I was disappointed because when jkrowling said that lily's eyes were important I thought it was because it had something to do with lily having a connection with slytherin and that would make harry griffindor and slytherin's heir,or it'll help harry get a weapon or something and also about the mirror I thought it would make harry be able to communicate with sirius or dumbledore, so I guess when what was really behind those two things came out it was less shocking then what I thought so it fell short of what I had expected of it,
so to me I still dont think its VERY important as jkrowling hinted

but snape's undying love is really sweet 😃 I always liked him... in a way ,although he's the supposed baddy and harry hates him ___ actually I liked him because alan rickman played him.. his voice is unique ^__^

but there were still unexplained things in it, didnt jkrowling said that she'll show what harry's parents work as or something? I was really interested in what they work as(aside the order)also when they went to godric's hollow.. it didnt really show much of anything there..and she said she'd wrap everything up so that no one other author can write a sequel or something like that but the ending only covered major characters.. I would like to know what happened to everybody else and also more of harry and ginny, or how the weasley's and the dursleys get on with their lives..

Yeah, I got the first book as a tenth birthday present and I turned sixteen during the spring. I'm homeschooled, so I don't really have any friends, and I immediately bonded with the story to a severe degree. I'm not the type to cry, but I actually had a break-down while reading it. I think those 7-8 hours were some of the worst in my life because I knew that would be the end.

You would lose the bet. It's not sold out! 😀

Indeed, I bought it just moments ago. Borders still has dozens of them for $22-a-pop.

No, Order of the Phoenix is the longest by about a hundred pages.

I got the book at about 4 in the afternoon and finnished it at ~2 am. It was a really good book and the ending felt so much more "complete" than so many others series I have read in the past.

Oh and i watched the harry potter film the other day at the cinema ... thought it was passible but the books are sooooooooooo much better. Possibly because its a film targeting a younger auidence aswell (thus maybe a little bit shorter) but the HP films lack so much detail compared to the books.

yeah.. i agree..
the HP 5 movie is not really good..
cause the sound effect not really suprising me..
and the detail from book sometimes didn't made to the movie. 😔

I'm asking this to the people who have already finished the book
Is the leaked plot by that hacker true or false?

There is actually a real pdf version out there...but u could see that it was done in a hurry...u can find misspellings on every page (but it's still readable though)
