How excited are you about harry potter and the deathly hallows?

Question

i could pee my pants i'm so excited for it!

What's the malfoys live?

I also think harry potter will be remembered forever they are amazing books.

Answer 1

Very!

And the book is having such a great buildup, with the movie coming out 10 days before the release. PotterCast is also touring to my city, 5 days after the movie and 5 days before the release!

I'm going to be helping out at my local Borders, helping them prepare for the midnight party, and handing out prizes.

But, with this excitement comes fear... A lot of fans were spoiled when Half Blood Prince was released. Some people think it's funny to ruin the excitement that has been building up for years and years...

I know it's just a book, and that it's not the end of the world if the end of a book gets spoiled, but I've been an active member of the fandom for years and I have invested a lot into the excitement and the mystery of the next book.

So please, anyone who's reading, DON'T try to find out what happens in Deathly Hallows, then run around spoiling the book for fans. It's not funny to crush the excitement that has been building up in someone for 2 or more years.

So yes... obviously I'm too excited for my own good :)

When book 6 came out, Naperville closed the downtown and renamed all the businesses for Harry Potter sites. They had face painting, wand making, as well as a band playing and a Harry Potter trivia contest. It was hard to find a parking place! I am looking forward to similar crazyness.

I also want to say that I am getting pretty tired of people claiming to have seen the book in advance or asking for links to the "free" ebook of Harry Potter 7. These people are just spoilers!

Answer 3

Seriously, I can't wait for this summer. Me and my friends have ordered hogwarts outfits online to see Order of the Phoenix at midnight, go to a Deathly Hallows preparty, and see Draco and the Malfoys live. It's kind of sad, though, because once this summer is over, the Harry Potter fandom will never have this much hype...but for now it's awesome!

Answer 4

I am enormously excited about it and will be very happy to open my mailbox and find the book inside.

Here are my thoughts about what I might find inside:

1. Harry is not a horcrux! (This idea makes no sense in light of the prophesy for one, and why would Voldemort put part of his soul into someone he might have to fight anyway). Also, were that the case, Harry can't vanquish Voldemort unless he let Voldemort cast a death spell at him, then cast one of his own at Voldemort, because all the horcruxes have to be destroyed before Voldemort can die.

2. Pettigrew still has a debt to Harry and that debt will be collected upon.

3. Neville will find his strength and confidence.

4. Bill Weasley's marriage will be the scene of a big fight, and maybe the death of one of the major characters.

5. Draco Malfoy will not be a major factor, unless he admits to himself that he is in over his head with the Deatheaters and turns coat.

6. We will find out that Harry is Dumbledore's heir, and among the things he gets is the pensieve and a bunch of very instructive memories.

7. Deaths: First, we are assuming that either Harry or Voldemort dies. I believe that Harry lives, because it is a children's/YA series after all and the central character of such series never die, JKR will not buck that canon.
Otherwise: My handicapping, in order of likelihood (IMHO):

Ron, Percy, Pettigrew, Fred/George, Neville, Lupin, Hagrid, Hermione, Petunia, Dudley, Tonks, Mr./Mrs. Weasley, Malfoy, Ginny, Bill, Fleur, Luna, Snape.

8. Couples (assuming they survive the book): Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione, Neville/Luna, Lupin/Tonks (and I think these two will marry by the last chapter).

9. Finally, about Snape:
Snape is Snape. He is beyond the sort of simplistic categorization as "good" or "evil", IMHO. I do believe he is not as evil as he appeared at the end of HBP. It would take too much space to really go into this in detail, but consider this:

It is well known that Snape played the double-agent prior to the death of Harry's parents, and there is no reason to believe he wasn't still a double agent on the anti-Voldemort side. Why then did he bind himself to the success of Draco's mission and then actually kill Dumbledore?
My answer: Dumbledore knew that destroying Slytherin's ring had fatally wounded him and Snape knew so too. Therefore he allowed himself to be bound to Dumbledore"s death, a death he knew was imminent and against which he knew Dumbeldore had taken precautions to ensure that his death would not derail the anti-Voldemort movement.

Now, on the other hand, if Snape has turned coats; why did he not kill Harry* or disable him and take him helpless to Voldemort? JKR made it clear that Harry is no match for Snape as a wizard (yet). If you look at Snapes "taunts" at Harry and put them into anyone else's mouth, they're very good advice on what Harry needs yet to learn to fight strong adult wizards on anything like equal terms.
My answer is that Dumbledore at some point shortly after Harry was orphaned made Snape take an unbreakable vow to protect Harry. This fits in perfectly with Snape's actions toward Harry in the books thus far. Yes, Snape is a mean SOB to Harry, but that is Snape's personality, and he didn't vow to be nice to Harry after all.

My conclusion is that in Book Seven, Snape will act covertly and eventually overtly to aid Harry, that he will likely live, and that Harry will be just as in the dark over Snape's motivations as when Harry entered Hogwarts. (BTW, the above is why I don't think Harry will die. If I'm right, then Snape dies too if Harry dies, and Snape is the ultimate survivor).

*My reading of the prophecy is that there is no requirement that either has to directly kill the other, just that one no longer lives, so I think Snape certainly could have killed Harry and talked his way out of it afterwards
