Frankly, I'm thankful the death wasn't Lupin. My little sister and I both noticed that it was kinda glossed over, and both did double takes when he died.

I know for certain that the other four books are more 'Americanized' than OotP. I own both the American and British versions and there is a noticible difference in the verbage.
I too am glad that Lupin didn't die (I confess, I did look at the last page to see if any of the theories were correct that were out there. . . ). I am sad that Sirius was murdered because I really liked him but I'm sure that he will play a role in the other books in some way. I also like the explanation as to why Sirius would not be coming back as a ghost. . . I'm also interested to see who is going to be Harry's legal guardian.
A good number of questions answered, but many points left unanswered.
I just hope that we don't have to wait ANOTHER three years for book 6!
