"hem hem" drove me up the wall too! The teachers should have just swung for her i know i would have! lol!
I liked it when Fred and George turned the corridor into a swamp and none of the teachers would clear it up!lol! I liked Fudge at the beginning of the 3rd book when he was helping Harry but he is such an evil b*...........anyway i was saying i really done't like him and Percy it is horrible that he has gone against his own family just coz of his job! Harry is such a stroppy teenager in this one! lol!and that Luna is strange. I love Ginny in this book! She is really helpful and kind. Ron's reaction to her having a boyfriend cracked me up! lol! |

I think it's a possibility. Maybe Draco is trying to live up be like his father when he's nasty etc, and because he is jealous of Harry. Not so much because that's what he's really like...*contemplates* Have we seen any signs that Draco may turn over a new leaf? |

It was great! I loved the book! I stayed up until 2 in the morning a few nights ago to finish it, and that is really unusual for me (I usually go to sleep at a reasonable tiime).
I don't think Draco could ever be good. You heaard what he said to Harry about his dad being caught, and all. If he was going to turn over a new leaf, I don't think he would have got so riled up, and all. I was so sad when Sirius died. I got all chocked up, and that, again, is unusual for me. Fred and George where great, really. I tyhin Harry had some serious anger managment problems though. Oh well, I can hardly blame him (well I can but...) because he was kept in the dark about every thing for so long. And tehn at the end when he had a spaz attack (In dumbledours office) he was just upset that serious died. The only thing I don't get is why he hated Snape so much more after that. I mean, Snape saved Harry's life pretty much (if anyone) and he tried to make Serious stay behind so, shouldn't harry be thanking him more then blaming him? |

Why do you people want her to rush through it? I hope she takes her time, so book six is as good as it can be.

I agree.
I want it as soon as i can get it but if i have to wait 2 years for it then i'll happily wait 2 years for it. I just hope that she won't finish it in a year (and i mean completely finish it and it's perfect and it's ready to publish) but decides to keep us waiting for another 2 years that will aggitate me! I can't wait for it though!!! |

RE: Draco....
I don't expect--and I don't want--that he will have some sudden epiphany and be a good boy. That would be dumb. But I think that we might begin to see signs that he's not so happy with his chosen career path... Also (I'm sorry if I get all psycho-analytical on you here), he does get riled up easily by Harry and everyone else, defends himself over little things that are hardly worth talking about, and does his absolute best to inflate his own ego and make himself the coolest kid around. This to me says something big....he's very unhappy. I can tell. I think it would be very very cool if in book six, or more likely seven, Draco and Harry had to work together to do something important...not like a school project, like something big for the Order or Dumbledore, or to defeat Moldy-warts. That would make me happy. tano

I also think that there could also be some feelings of guilt on Harry's part because he was tricked into thinking Sirius needed help. And instead of saving Sirius, events led to Sirius' death. |

Has anyone checked out paragraph 3 on page 242?
I don't believe I've ever heard that verb used in that manner before. You learn new things every day.

That's a perfectly proper (if unusual) use of that word. It is a bit funny though. It's not as bad as her use of "snogging" when discussing Kreacher the house elf and someone's pants.

And yes, Khamûl, I believe now that I've heard it used before in that manner by my aunt when she was livid about the road construction in our area. Like I said, you learn new things everyday.

Anyway, here's the quote (and it's from a children's book so I guess it's ok except as a spoiler):
To the mods and amins, feel free to edit them out as I wasn't really quite sure whether I can post them. But it is funny, as Khamûl says.

well well well im very impressed, im glad she didnt skim on the dark side of things this book... ummm ill do this in points
1. Dudley was a champ and i sorta thought Harry was a wimp with his wand, i nearly cheered when 'Dudley dropped him, but Harrys taunts made up for that 2. Harry's detentions with Umbridge were very nice, very honorable of Harry to take it like that, would have been more of an impact if he wrote GET ****ED WENCH! or something along those lines. 3. Hagrid was a champ when he started beating the wizards. Reminded me of Bigwig charging at the crow yelling Cowards because the crow was attacking Pipkin and Fiver. 4. Sirius was great. Didnt deserve death but in the same way the Priest didnt, it was for the best 5. I loved the brutality of the Giants and if they conveniantely 'edit' that from the movies for the kiddies i will scream. 6. Poor Grawpy should have feasted on the centaurs. 7. Neville is awesome this book. Copped a boot to the face and still kept on fighting. 8. Fred and George were again very amusing (especially when Fred beat Draco down ) Fred and George should beat Percy. 9. Ron should have abused his powers and taken every point Slytherin earned... 10. Nymphadora made me laugh heheheh im so childish 11. I can picture Ainsley Harriot playing Kingsley. as far as what becomes of Draco... well Lucius will die, cant claim Imperius curse twice now can he?, hopefully the captured Death Eaters will be given to Grawp to play with, or face execution by Hagrids crossbow (when will he use that thing???) but more likely they will be killed by Voldemort thus turning Draco against him and free to join Harry in a good old fasioned witch hunt. Bellatrix is Voldemorts lover in my opinion and it could well end (as sick as it sounds) in a Hitler/Eva Braun situation...
