Caution! HBP spoiler ahoi.
And now it's my turn to write spoilers for HBP. Proceed with caution.
I really liked the book, but it was an emotional roller coaster. The character death hit me hard, though I kind of expected it. The circumstances of the death were even harder for me, though I am not a big fan of Snape.
And of course I mused about what to expect in the seventh installment. Here are my two sickles...
1. As I have said before, I am not a big fan of Snape. But still I don't think he is evil. I suppose he scemed an emergency plan with Dumbledore and Dumbledore sacrifices himself so Snape didn't blow his cover.
2. I go with the "Harry is the sixth Horcrux-theory", which has been posted a lot on my flist. In CoS Harry muses about Tom Riddle and has the fleeting memory of Tom Riddle being a friend, someone he knew, when he was very little (can't find the passage at the moment, but I think you'll know what I mean). This passage indicates (at least in my opinion) that there's a part of Voldemort in Harry; the part that speaks Parseltongue and is slytherin-ish. But there is more in it for me, and I sincerely hope no-one posted this before (I haven't seen it anywhere so far, but I have to admit I didn't look properly). I could imagine that in book seven Harry will find out that he is the sixth Horcrux, will kill Voldemort and will try to kill himself and the last part of Voldemort's soul with him afterwards. But by means of murdering Voldemort he'll splinter of a part of his soul, and it will be the Voldemort part. So he'll be able to make a horcrux, destroy it and survive.
What do you think about it? Perhaps it's my hope that Harry will survive that blinds me...
