Because no-one seems to have posted it yet.

Book 7 title announced: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

My prediction: Harry's totally going to eat it. On Halloween. In Godric's Hollow. Probably by taking Voldemort's new core-less wand to the spleen.

Not the Spleen!

Hmm, reminds me that I need to see movie #4 and read book #6.

Book 6 is...interesting. Maybe it's just me, but it reads like well-written fanfic. Lots of couples hooking up, lots of couply angst, Draco and Snape being ambiguous together, something tragic happening to a main character at the end, and a weird new concept with an implausible name being introduced. It definitely doesn't have the appeal to me that Book 5 did. But then, I love me the ideological warfare.

I love it when writers start ficcing themselves.

You're actually not the first person to describe it that way to me.

"The Deathly Hollows" rates about a 3.5 on the lame subtitle scale, from my perspective.

I need to sit down and re-read the first books to bring myself up to date again. I can't remember where I stopped reading at this point.

I would have prefered "Harry Potter and the Sucking Chest Wound".

Or: "Harry Potter and the Pubescent Wizardess"

See, I was thinking "Harry Potter and the *Crap! Emma's still underage. Don't look! Don't look! Think of Snape's buttons instead. Ah, that's better. I'm such a naughty old perv*"

Now, *that* would be a title!

moonandserpent December 22 2006, 02:08:01 UTC

Is she still underage? Isn't she over 16, now?

Ahhh, here's a toast to we naughty old pervs.

And I still blame you for the recent fanfic postings.

Yeah. That makes sense.

My hubby thinks the last book should be 1,000 pages of Harry/Ron porn. "And then Harry caressed Ron's milky white thigh."

Yeah I love him. ;)

I believe it's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Apparently there's been some confusion on that front in the media.

kitsune_zen December 22 2006, 02:09:41 UTC

Yup, caught it just as you were posting.

ombriel December 22 2006, 02:13:42 UTC

Thank god that you'd changed it. I seriously thought I'd wrapped my sanity up with the all the presents.

LOL! ombriel December 22 2006, 02:10:12 UTC

Or the confusion is in my brain. You have it correctly, but I misread it. I swear I read Hollows! I think I need one of those sonic screwdrivers.

I think that Harry comes out just fine, but Neville dies trying to avenge his parents and overcome his own problems.

Harry lives a normal life afterwards and ends up with Ginny.

Ron and Herm finally admit something between them, but one of the dies.

Snape, also is killed while saving Harry's life to pay back Harry's father and make amends for the dead of killing D.D. in book 6.

So, in otherwords, a whole lot of people die, but not Harry, and very few live happily ever after even of those that survive.
