I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Oh no, not another Snape fan!Jen-Jen wrote:As long as Snape doesn't die I'm happy!
I wouldn't mind at all if Snape died. I am not sure where I stand on the "Is Snape Good Or Bad?" debate. Whether he is good or bad, he's an odious bully, and I find it hard to tolerate or justify his treatment of his students, especially Neville and Harry.
Not long now, though, you're right! I can't wait! Nigel, I wonder how many people like you have booked time off work on the weekend of July 21, and maybe even the following Monday.

Re: Harry Potter 7
Yes I'm sorry - I'm a really big Snape fan!
Snape is definately a good guy!!!!! I'm quite certain Dumbledore asked Snape to kill him so that Voldemort will no longer doubt that Snape is not 100% loyal to him. Snape will somehow help Harry find the rest of the Horcruxes.

It must be exciting lining up at Midnight to get your copy of Harry Potter. In Australia we get it at 9:01am which although isn't as exciting as midnight - it's great because we have the whole day to read it!!!!!I wonder how many people like you have booked time off work on the weekend of July 21, and maybe even the following Monday

Re: Harry Potter 7
Interesting! Yes, that is possible. Snape does have a further role to play, I am sure, and that could well be it.Jen-Jen wrote:Snape will somehow help Harry find the rest of the Horcruxes.
And yes, it is exciting to line up at midnight. I am always afraid of those queues, though, sure that someone is going to let slip something important (either intentionally or accidentally). Some people just like to spoil other people's fun. The day Half-Blood Prince was published, someone in Cornwall put up a huge sign on one of the motorway bridges that read "DUMBLEDORE DIES." Why? Why do that? I felt for all the Harry Potter fans in those cars passing underneath who couldn't help but see it.

Yeah I heard of people bobbing up in the middle of unrelated discussions on message boards and posting 'DD dies'. What's the point in doing a thing like that? I'll be staying off the net and in the house till I have finished book seven

Here in Melbourne the newspapers write articles the day after the book comes out about the things that happened in the book - so most people avoid reading the newpapers. I never have to worry though because I'm a super fast reader and always have the book finished the day I get it.
I agree totally Moose - What sort of people would want to spoil things for others??!!!!!What's the point in doing a thing like that?

Surely if you are reading a book of possibly 700+ pages, it is going to take a bit more than an hour or two in the morning!! I must be in a minority here as I like to read a book properly and not just skim through the pages. I do a lot of proofreading and find that is essential if I am going to spot all the errors to read something at the same speed as if I'm reading aloud - I will not be reading it in one sitting or for that matter stretching it out through the day!! Nevertheless I will still enjoy the book always assuming that someone doesn't reveal everything on this site on the day it is published!Moose wrote:Yeah I mean to finish it the day I get it:) Though I haven't yet worked out whether I'll read it all in one sitting or streeeeeeetch it out through the day to prolong the pleasure...

I never skim read . But I am perfectly capable of reading one of the later Harry Potter's in one sitting .. with the odd loo or coffee break that is.
