Sucks that it's over though. I was thoroughly convinced that he was going to die!

Mmm, rather that then in 6 years 'Harry Potter and the Mid-life crisis', as Rowling once joked.

Quote: "well if it follows the other books

1. Someone saves Harry from getting expelled
2. The defense against the dark arts teacher is either a villian or someone that will antogonize Harry.
3. Everyone at school will hate Harry at some point for something they think he is responsible for or think he is lying about.
4. There will be a Quidditcth (sp?) match where something goes wrong but Harry still catches the snitch."

Wait till you read the book. I got it at the midnight release and I loved it. I wish I could find out more but its truely an epic ending.

I wanted Harry to wake up and not be a wizard, but the Dursleys slaves.

Dudley Dursley punched Harry and Harry went into a coma for 7 years and imagined it all.

Yeah, that sounds about right.

But my idea was that he would wake up in the first book, when he was 10 or so. The the fat Dursleys would have him cooking bacon and eggs for them.

Just finished it today. I've not had time to read it solid and only got it on Wed.

It was really good but i thought the ending was a little bit weak.
Do not read if you haven't finished this book:

I thought the book was absolutely fantastic.

Mmm. I once heard of Barry Trotter. You should read those.

I think the first book was Barry Trotter and the shameless parody.

They suck. Really. Maybe just enough to make it funny, though.

I just finished it today, I think it was too easy to figure out how it was going to end. But other than that the book was great!

Umbridge gets angry because Harry accidentally impregnated her and causes a flood that kills Harry's grandfather, Voldemort.

Whoops, I'm sorry.

Not clever.

I never tell the truth.
That ain't a paradox.
I always tell lies is though.

I got to the fifth book and didn't bother reading it. It was so drawn out, so slow, so infinitely boring, that it simply wasn't worth it in the end. I then lost it somehow.


Since the other one was scaring you guys so much...

That's the same problem I had. :/ I liked the 4th Harry Potter book the best. I would read it at school instead of my school books, probably should have paid attent10n to spellzings and grammerer though.


I didn't get the last book, as I'm not a big enough fan to want to get demolished by fake-wizards in a book store, that'd be embarrasing. <In all honesty, I'm not even really a fan of Harry Potter, I just like reading books>


Cheers,
