TO ALL HARRY POTTER FANS:
NO WORRIES, THIS IS NOT A SPOILER FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T READ THE HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE YET. HOWEVER, I TRUST THAT EVERYONE ALREADY KNOWS THAT THERE WILL BE YET ANOTHER DEATH FOLLOWING SIRIUS BLACK IN THIS BOOK (REPORTED IN ALL MAJOR NEWS CHANNELS AND ENTERTAINMENT NEWS)...ANYWAY, IT'S A FANTASTIC NO. 6. ENJOY!!!!
Finished the latest Harry Potter book this morning (I know I'm quite slow, but cannot blame me ok...I'm working leh...very tired). There were tears all over my precious book, got to put it by the window to dry up the tears. I had finally calmed down after brooding over the ending for awhile...
I had already heard that someone is going to die in this new book before its release on 16th July. And this particular wizard/witch had been on the top of my list of 'Possible-Deaths' way before the book's release. After starting on the book, I'm even more certain that this wizard/witch will be the one dying in the end. However, when the reality finally dawned on me, I still feel stunned. Certainly one of my favourites since the very first book, I'm devastated. I can't believe that he/she will not appear in the final book after accompanying us thru the ups and downs in the wizarding world. *tears rolling down my cheeks again*
HOWEVER, I think that this might be a pre-layout for the 7th and final book. Do not really believe that the 'murderer' is indeed as bad as Rowling made him/her out to be in this 6th book (noted some highly-suspicious points in Book 6), especially since he/she is a trusted character by a trusted character in the Harry Potter series (you all understand what I'm talking about?). I think there must have been some serious plotting by J.K.Rowling for her final book. -- Difficult to explain what I think here when I'm not suppose to be a spoiler, so anyone who had finished the book can call my secretary and schedule an appointment with me for furthur discussions.
Nevertheless, a GREAT book that is definitely worth the wait of...almost 2 years??? (if I'm not wrong) Worth the price too...$40 over okay...
Can't wait for the final showdown, Harry Potter VS Lord Voldemort, how exciting!!! But it would also mean that there wouldn't be anymore Harry Potter again...*sobsobsob*
Anyway, I'm going to reincarnate as Sherlock Holmes and re-read all my Harry Potter books again to find clues on the final book. Avid Harry Potter fans would know that J.K.Rowling always like to dig out insignificant characters or events mentioned in previous books...everything is mentioned for a reason...
p/s: I would like everyone to observe a minute of silence please, for one of the greatest wizards/witches of our time.
