Does that mean she'll kill Harry? I doubt it, but it isn't implausible. That's why there are so many people who believe both stories. What I do know is this: I'm ordering Book 7 from Amazon and not leaving the house or getting online until I finish it. Too many of those "Snape Killed Dumbledore" assholes ruined it for so many people this summer and, while I didn't fall victim to that gag, it'll be in overdrive on Book 7. Every spoiler with a car and a handicam are going to be out in those midnight showings pissing off the masses and I, for one, intend to be far far away from them.
Thank you Jeff Bezos for a sane alternative to fighting the mobs and nitwits.

Good idea ADM. I don't see why people can't appreciate that people don't like to get spoiled and respect important stuff like that by not spoiling it for people. (don't think that is the words I wanted, but hopefully I got my point across).

I seriously once read a thread about Serenity, that had no spoiler tags on one of the post that read
"I cried when Snape killed River."
At first I was furious that River's death was spoiled for me.... then I realized that Snape definitely wasn't apart of Firefly, and did a double-take. Got a good laugh out of it.
But from now on, any time a highly anticipated movie comes out, you can give a fake spoiler that Snape killed someone, and everyone will get what you mean whether they are a fan of HP or not.

As for my thoughts... I think Harry's gonna bite it. It's my personal belief that he is a horcrux himself, or if he doesn't die, he'll lose the scar somehow.

Deciding who my favorite character is is tough. I like Harry, but there are times in the books when I like a certain character. I like the relationship that Harry, Ron & Hermione have. I also really liked Dumbledore, I saw him as kind of a father/grandfather to Harry. About him being really dead, I don't think he is going to be a ghost. I agree with klokwerk. The ghosts in these books are more like ghosts would be in real life I feel, people that might be having trouble accepting their death and so forth. I think if Dumbledore knew he was going to die, he would have been able to accept it, he probably knew that his time was up and that he couldn't do anything. I don't mean that like he is psychic and can see the future. I think Harry is going to either be alone in the next book or Ron and Hermione are gonna tag a long with him. About Harry dying in the next book, I really didn't think of that. I think it's a really good possibility that he is going to face Voldemort, I think I would be surprised if he didn't. And about Snape being good still, I haven't really thought about that, but I kind of do hope he is still good, but I'm kind of skeptical. I do hope JK does leave herself to be able to have more books cause I just can't see this ending, or more like, I don't want these to end. I went from thinking Harry Potter was a stupid book, then read the first one at my cousins house and got hooked. In response to maddog00 saying that JK hasn't decided whether or not Harry dies, I'm pretty sure I read in an interview that, now that I'm thinking about it, I'm starting to second guess myself but, she has the basic storyline in her head but I think she doesn't know the exact details until she starts righting. Can't remember, but does remind me of a good interview I read with her and if I find it I'll edit my post and put the link. One thing I know is that I'm definitely going to be sad after I read the last book. I hate when things come to an end, it even happens with movies. Well, that was my thoughts, let me know what you think about anything that could be commented on.

I said if I found where I read the interview with J.K. Rowling I'd post the link, well I found it. J.K. Rowling Interview The interview is 3 pages long I think, but it is an interesting interview.
