Here's the back cover wording on the book. Enjoy but don't read if you don't like spoilers!

I saw this this morning. Interesting that the back cover only seems to give light to what happens in the first couple of chapters. It almost seemed like there was more vague descriptions on the older covers, rather than here's what happens in the beginning.

Odd... but exciting to say the least.

I'm curious to know how Harry knows that Dumbledore himself is going to visit the Dursleys. I'm assuming that DD takes Harry with him seeing as how J.K. did say that Harry's stay at Privet Drive would be the shortest one yet.

I can't wait for Saturday morning. I start reading first thing in the morning & spend all day doing it.

Oooooh, that last sentence on the back cover gave me chills, that sounds big...

I'm so mad, I work everyday this weekend and I'm going to be working till 3am selling at the bookstore, when I get home, I may not be able to read the book myself! (Oh, whatever, y'all know I
l'll be reading till sunrise!)

Ok 12:01 a.m. Saturday, July 16 cannot get here fast enough.

I think this is worse than waiting for ROTS to come out.....

Please please please take this with a grain of salt people & don't skewer me for posting it. I found this in a community I belong to in LiveJournal. I think it's a hoax but it is pretty good. Just avoid altogether & DO NOT READ if you don't want to be spoiled in case it is the truth though I don't see how it could be seeing as how the book hasn't been released yet.


EDIT: This link no longer works. If you want to see the spoiler, click on the link in my next post.

Shoot. Let me load it again.

EDIT: Well, it seems that it was taken down from the website so it's gone. However, if you really want to see it, I can PM you the image b/c it's still on my photobucket account but I must warn you that if what it says is true, it would be a HUGE spoiler as to who dies next in the series & who kills that person.

Wait: Does this work?

Never mind, there's no possible way, I won't believe that one, I can't--I wish you could see me, my face is pale and my throat is dry, if that's true then...oh, oh my...

Okay first words out of my mouth when I read that:


"holy mother of god, you've got to be kidding me!!!!"



the first thing I do tomorrow when I get my book at 12:01 is going straight to that page and finding out if it is true or not.

Part of me wants to believe someone has a really sick sense of humor... another part of me thinks it's completely plausible.

I'm not one to go read the last chapters of books before I read the whole thing... but this may be my one exception.

No... no... I won't do it. Nevermind.

It was posted on a page for a community I belong to on LiveJournal. I was shocked. The page certainly looks legitimate but I always ask myself how that is possible but then again, there are people who have advance copies such as those who have boyfriends who work in warehouses.
Anyway, I too almost cried & I too will turn to that page tomorrow night to see if it is true.

Yes, but does the page say he's dead?????

We know Dumbeldore's powerful and it could be a "pretend" killing to get Snape back into Voldemort's graces and help him be a better spy for the good guys. Wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Or Snape could just be pure evil........
