Harry Potter 7

Us Brits get it tommorow. *flex*

I won't read it, that's what my sister and cousin are for, they just tell me what happens, as I really can't be fucked to read through it. =)
 
...Its gonna pretty good, methinks. I wish people wouldn't be retarded and post spoilers if they know what happens in it.

*Cough*real estate barrel and others*cough*

And I think the page count is about 784 or something like that for the 7th book.

I'm going to say that this shirt is bogus... It just seems too much like a cop out from J.K.

Pretty much all the things taht the fans want comes to pass? That's just a little too convienent. I'm sure some of the people that the shirt says dies are going to die, but I'm going to call a lot of it bogus.

But we'll see for sure on Saturday... You know the Internet is going to be alive with talk of book as soon as it's released at 12:01 AM Saturday morning.

No, I've seen the leaks. Either someone is incredibly skilled at mimicking J.K. Rowling's style and is is just as equally skilled at Photoshop, or it's real. The shirt has it down to the specific pages.
 
If that's true then this is going to be by far the worst book I have ever read.

Everything goes great?!! What? Harry goes through hell for 6 years and now he's great. Sorry I don't by it.


Where are these Leaks you talk about? I want to see them.

Four of his friends die, and so does he! Unless your talking about everything that happens afterwards... well, J.K. Rowling has said herself that the last lines of the book are "The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years. All was well." That, and the only reason Harry goes through hell for six years is because of Voldemort, who would then be dead (thus not causing any hell)

And I'll PM you a link in a little bit.
 
Maybe it's because I believe that the hero should die saving the peop;le he loves or killing the bad guy.

Harry Potter has been building to a climax ending... I would absolutely die if the ending was that he grows up and has three kids.

That would be worse than the "Charmed" Series Finale... That was just sad.

I've read the leaks for the most part, and just got finished reading a pretty detailed explanation of every chapter and high/lowpoint.

If it's the real book, I'll be disappointed but not completely surprised; I've always had some problems with Rowling's work. Her characters' actions strike me as being stupid for no reason, acting like idiots just to drag the book out or for the sake of the plot. Still, it's her series and she can do whatever she wants with it.
 
I'm going to get the book right when it comes out, and then stay up for a few hours to read it. Since it's 1AM now, I geuss I'll be getting it in 23 hours.

It's not a good thing, but I don't have much sympathy for them considering the amount of arrogant boasting they were making over their security in news magazines.

this is the thing that makes me laugh the most, i think. all this security for a 700+ page kid's book riddled with silly deaths, a book that most people get through within a couple of hours. a book that, ultimately, proves that no amount of whacky jinxes or strange plants that make you grow ridiculous blisters or goblin trickery or use of the word "snogging" on one page can defeat the most evil wizards of all - amazon.com employees.
 
hey guys i dont plan on getting the book but it looks quite interesting but did some people wait/ camp until the book came out
 
I'm not sure if it's true, but a friend told me that there was actually a counseling hotline for people who were getting the book to call for whatever reason... O.o
 
Although I didn't camp out, I received the book at 1 PM today, had it pre-ordered for quite a while. Read almost half-way through, and it is extremely interesting, and also, well, a lot of things to not expect. I'll give some spoilers for you people who like them. 100% fact, if you don't believe, well your loss. XD

Ron leaves the trio after a heated argument. I have no clue what happens to him as of late.

Harry's wand is snapped in half. Wonder what happens now...?

We learn a good deal of Dumbledore's past, and it seems he has dappled in dark magic, and (dear god) was friends of Grizenwald, and gave him the idea of conquering muggle for the greater good. Holy fucking shit on fire.

Harry's fragment of the mirror that Sirius gave him flashed something blue. Possible Dumbledores eye?

Harry's wand acted out of its own accord when facing Voldemort who was using Lucius wand??? (What the hell?)

Mad-Eye is dead. George loses an ear. Snape is headmaster of Hogwarts, and he, up until this point of the story, is still evil. A death eater took position of the DADA job.

Godrics Griffindor's sword can destroy horcruxes? (Not certain of this, but the portrait guy in Dumbledores office said Dumbledore used in on a black ring. Also, the sword in Dumbledores office was a fake.

Dumebledore has a sister that was a squib? (Mentioned in the book, people seem to think she was "just ill" and kept inside, but other people dug information and says shes a squib. I wonder if she is.)

There seems to be clues and such left behind about horcruxes and stuff thats important, but Harry has only gotten the locket.

Lupin and Tonks get married, has a baby. Lupin was ashamed of having a kid, his kind has never done that before. And now, Tonks is treated as if she is a werewolf, so she is shunned with Lupin. Lupin doesn't like this, so he "runs from home", and tells Harry he wants to help him in any way possible. Harry calls him a coward for leaving his kid, and Lupin leaves highly enraged. Still wondering what happened to Lupin though.

And finally, the grand spanking finally. Kreacher ACTUALLY ACTS CIVILIZED. After Harry treated Kreacher with respect, and dare I say love, Kreacher respected harry as his master, and even cleaned up Grimmauld Place and fed them good food. Holy moley macaroni.

That's a crapload of spoilers, enjoy!
 
Master InuYasha, you are telling LIES. I have alredy read nearly the whole book and none of the point you mentioned actually happen. LIAR. Nobody listen to him.
