Its real. Nobody would go through that much trouble to fake it this late in the game. A few months ago I would have been skeptical, but at this point the book is in the hands of any number of people. The epilogue is the more questionable part, it is much shorter and easier to fake, plus it does not have a dust cover. But even if you look at the color of the cover, you will notice it is just the same as the one barely visible under the cover of the part Sean posted about [spoiler]Hedwig dying[spoiler/]. I searched google to see if there was anything in the news about a leak, I didn't find anything concrete, but it was funny to see the "burn-them-at-the-stake" attitude everyone had for even alleged spoilers. One person was going on about posting HP spoilers being cruelty to children. Seriously, if you don't want spoilers don't read them. Even the very title of this thead is a "stay the hell away" sign (even without the "Potential spoilers tag) for anyone honestly not wanting to be spoiled. Kind of silly to read a thread titled "Possible last chapter for Harry Potter Book 7" if knowing the ending of said book is going to ruin your life. It doesn't ruin the book. Any countless number of people new the ending to Tom Saywer before I was even born, yet I could still read and enjoy the book in my childhood. Some people are just ridiculous. The only people that should be crying here are the publishers and whoever gets pounced for the leak.
