Yeah, that *was* a "nice" little revelation! I like Neville too.

Corin, I don't think she is going to kill off Harry. She has already announced what the last sentence of book 7 is going to be...and he's definitely alive for that one.

There are a lot of little substories that JKR has woven in...and as you know with my obsession with Pippin, I love substories. I'm itching to know what they are.

help me out here Jen - - if JKR is always saying and proving in her stories that things are not always what they appear to be, why must I completely accept that certain characters will never change at all (you know of whom I speak! LOL) That just doesn't sit right with me. I keep thinking "how unfair!"

I know. I just say things like that for the reaction.

Off myself. Boss's office (that's me) is hosting the agency for a "Holiday Reception" this afternoon. Gotta go get stuff ready...

Because he's a stupid jerk and doesn't have any interest in redeeming himself. Some folks just can't be helped. And the fangirls don't deserve a redeemed - well, you know.

I don't think the "revealed last sentence" actually proves Harry's alive at the end, you know.

Going again...

I haveen't read the Harry Potter books yet, though I saw the first movie in A&E (I think it was on A&E)

I have lots of friends and relatives here who are HP fans.

I must be the only one in the country who hasn't read any of the HP books, but readiing you posts and the posts of others makes me curious enought to pick up the first book (which HP fans advise me to read first or I'll be very cunfused as to what is going on)

PS, Harry did kind of remind me of a cross between Pippin and Frodo.
