Just playing! Those are only my predictions, not spoilers. In fact, any spoilers you see online are probably fake. So who here has pre-ordered the book already?

harry wakes up, the last 7 books was all a dream. In reality, he's a nerd living in the 21st century.

There's a torrent of the full book out, somebody photographed every single page. It's real, so there are real spoilers out there--so be careful if you're a fan!
ps: some of your predictions are right :P

I hear that the secret is to look slightly to the right. If all goes well, there should be a second page waiting for you.
Edit: if you are already as far to right as you can go, then you most likely have to flip the page over, go to the top left corner of the new set of pages and start over again.

The first page of the book is always the verso. Looking to the right would do nothing. UED, you may want to start with some
lighter reading first.
It's $22.50 CDN to pre-order HP7 at Amazon.ca, and they mail a $5 gift certificate a week later. But free shipping is only applicable to orders $39.00 and greater, so I would like to get another book or two to reach that amount. Any other good books I should consider?
rookee - July 18, 2007 01:50 AM (GMT)
UED if you haven't read the Very Hungry Caterpillar yet, my 6 year old cousin is really suggesting you read that book. It's very good.
UnEmploymentDude - July 18, 2007 02:13 AM (GMT)
I skimmed through it, the pictures werent pretty enough.
TayYH89 - July 18, 2007 02:27 AM (GMT)
I'm guessing Ron and Hermione have a special relationship. It is already pretty obvious in the earlier books.
As for deaths, I doubt Harry will be dying, because of the prophecy, unless, he got killed by the death eaters?
MRavioli - July 18, 2007 02:29 AM (GMT)
oh man. me and my sister are gona go out at midnight to go buy the book
ShortAssassin - July 18, 2007 02:32 AM (GMT)
I'm going out on a limb and saying that Harry is a Horcux (or however you spell it) and that Voldemort didn't actually fail to kill him, but purposely made him a Horcux. Or at least I think that'd be interesting.

Ever read any of the Ender's Game series? Its great science fiction, so I would suggest it. Oh, and if you don't like Ender's Game, the second book (and the rest of the series) have a very different focus. You should give them a try. The Homecomming saga (first book is The Memory of Earth) is also great. Hell, anything by Orson Scott Card (the above books are all by Card).

One of my favorite light reads is His Dark Materials Trilogy :D.
ShortAssassin - July 18, 2007 02:42 AM (GMT)
I <3 Asimov series. The Foundation series and The Robot series were phenomenal.

… and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives …
they cant live at the same time, and if one dies, they both die so that doesnt work...
FlyinAsian - July 18, 2007 06:14 AM (GMT)
-The only person of consequence to die is Voldemort.
-Epilogue cuts to 19 years after Voldemort dies, Harry is married to Ginny and they have three kids: James, Lily and Albus.
-Ron and Hermione get married, have a couple of kids
-Previously said that Snape becomes headmaster of Hogwarts, this has been disproved but its based on a line at the end of the book where Harry mentions that the next headmaster of Hogwarts was from Slytherin, so I assumed this was Snape but apparently it isn't....
-Dumbledore in fact arranged his death months in advance, so he wasn't murdered by Snape
-Neville becomes a professor at Hogwarts
I don't read harry potter.
:hah:

Prophecy never works the way you think.

I read somewhere that Rowling had to change the plot and 2 of the main characters die instead of 1. Since I got a crush on Hermione I hope she doesn't die. But there is some problems with what are considered the main characters. Voldemort is pretty main too.
I'm also kinda sad since I'll have to wait 2 months until the book will be translated into Slovenian, as I'm not really motivated to read above 100 pages of English.

Books are pretty gay imo. Movies are where its at yo.
Trogz - July 18, 2007 05:58 PM (GMT)
:vhappy: i just reserved a copy, so i can pick it up at midnight on friday. I swear i am not gonna sleep that whole night.... :vhappy:
Ivan the Terrible - July 18, 2007 06:04 PM (GMT)
The first who finishes reading it should post here and tell me if hermione dies or not.
So far I think she doesn't and gets married with Ron.
sketching - July 18, 2007 07:19 PM (GMT)
Hermione better not die.
Ron better not die because that would make Hermione sad.
Zombo - July 18, 2007 07:23 PM (GMT)
dude flyinasian posted massive spoilers on the book, go read them if you want.
Armored Saint - July 18, 2007 08:38 PM (GMT)
hell fucken yea i reserved one too :) who liked the movie ......... voldomort is a child rapist he ends up raping harry :)
Ivan the Terrible - July 18, 2007 08:47 PM (GMT)
I searched around the house a bit and found the second book in english. Now I'm reading it and I think I maybe would be able to read the 7th one before they translate as long as I get my hands on one, or maybe I'll just wait for the movie /shrug

Man, Harry marry Ginny, that's the worse thing that can happen...
Regarding the prophecy, it didn't say that both have to die.

TayYH89 - July 20, 2007 06:37 AM (GMT)
Erm... Ginny is Ron's younger sister, does that make her asian?
