Just finished the book after having slept two hours.
ZTAbullwinkle is right, Rowling outdid herself. I've never had my heart pounding so much!

Seriously, tell me how it ends. I can't get into Harry Potter and I own the first five books. So somebody just tell me how it all turns out. We already have the spoiler warning in the title, so feel free.

I am sorry that I can't be the one to spoil the ending for you. I am quite pleased with how JK Rowling ended it, but I have made a promise to myself that I would give others about 48 hours to read it before I started discussing it in depth. I don't want to inadvertently tell someone who hasn't finished the book yet something (like how I was told of the big death in The Half-Blood Prince.

It has been a while since I have looked so forward to reading a book. I can only hope that another author publishes books that drive so many people to read.

I agree. I want to know too. Does Harry get married or does he die? I can't get into the series, but with all of the hype, you can't help it.

I was a bit disappointed in book 7. It wasn't bad,I just found it a bit predictable. I wish she would have taken a few more risks with it, maybe thrown in a couple of real twists and turns.
