IF anyone wants me to, I will email you the email I have with the scanned pictures of the book pages that have the titles on them. Just PM me with your email.

Yeah, I'm a huge fan of spoilers, too, but last book and all....I'll leave it alone. But Wed. is our (Barnes and Noble's) last Harry Potter book club meeting before the book comes out and I think in addition to Book 6, I might have everyone discuss predictions as well. They've been chomping at the bit for predictions for the last 6 weeks, so I think I'll go ahead and incorporate it in for this week, before we break till everyone's read it. I'm so excited!!!

Okay, HP fans...I need some help here. I just finished re-reading HBP, and I *thought* I remember Ron and Hermione had "hooked up" during the course of the book. Now, having re-read it, I can't find a "significant" scene that shows that the two of them became a couple (a la Harry and Ginny's kiss).

Do any of you remember something that I must have read over?

I just finished it (like 5 minutes ago) and it's really noted where Hermione is crying on Ron's shoulder during the funeral. That's what's noted as them 'getting together' but nothing official like the Harry Ginny kiss.
I admit it. I've read HBP about 10 or more times and I still cry at Dumbledore's funeral.

See, that's the only thing I could find, too - but couldn't that just also be one friend consoling another?

Maybe it'll be laid out more this Saturday!

I know I shouldn't have spoiled the final pages (the Epilouge) of the new book, but I'm very glad I did...The last chapter pages were photographed and are out on the web.

If anyone wants to read the last chapter (which reveals a lot about the characters), just PM me and I can send you the photos of the last pages.

No offense, but just for this reason I will be avoiding most Harry Potter sites like the plague till after I read the seventh book.

Oh. Bloomsbury (the publishing company in Britain) is having a live reading with JK Rowling in Britain at midnight BST. I am hoping there is a way to listen to it here in the US. Anyone know if you can?

Mugglenet.com has actually closed all of its forums down until next Tuesday so as to avoid the possibility of spoilers.

I know that most of the Harry Potter fansites are intentionally staying "Spoiler Free". I was able to locate the pages that someone had photographed through a link in an article on msnbc.com.

I am a huge Harry fan, but I was dying to know how it ended. I still have 90% of the book still being a big mystery to me, so I have not 100% ruined it for me...

There are supposedly 2 different versions. IMO, neither are real. Too many inconsistencies. Some mistakes I can handle. I work in publishing, I know it happens. But complete deviances/contradictions from prior explanations from JKR herself?

Yeah, I've heard conflicting spoilers too. I have to say even though I read a couple spoilers I won't believe them until I read it in the book.

Slightly off topic, but I just checked my results for my WOMBAT level 3 (I had missplaced my password) and I got an Exceeds Expectations!!

Woohoo, and I haven't taken the first 2 tests either.

BetteDavisEyes · #**928** 07-19-2007, 11:27 PM

I actually teared up reading the epilogue! I'm so excited BUT thanks to my damn Saturday class, I won't be able to start reading the book UNTIL Saturday night!

STOP THAT. YOU WITH YOUR SPOILERY HINTS.

/on guard

BetteDavisEyes · #**930** 07-20-2007, 12:15 AM

Actually, my hints will spoil nothing. Trust me. I LOVE spoilers but I would never intentionally do something that mean and bitchy to people who actually want to be surprised. Besides, I cry at everything. For instance, I cried when Bambi's mother died, I cried when Kermit married Miss Piggy and I cried when Luke burned Darth Vader at the end of Return of the Jedi. EVERYTHING makes me cry. Happy endings and sad endings.
Nothing spoiled!
