Harry's a bit.. Angsty. Or something. I personally don't hate him, but Ron is by far the greatest.

It's funny how the Marauders are my favourite characters, and they have so little real time in the books. James especially.

This is partially on-topic, because people were discussing Northern Lights/The Golden Compass earlier on. I think, of all Pullman's books that should be made into movies, Count Karlstein should be one of them. It's a fantastic little book and I think it would translate over very well. Precautions would have to be taken in order for not to be an overblown CGI wankfest, but only because that seems to be the trend in children's films these days. I haven't met anyone else who has read it, though, which is a shame.

That sucks. My mom loves Harry Potter. But I always feel weird discussing books aloud and theories and things. Maybe that's because I do too much of it online..

Yeah, its a bit boring (but I managed to make her read the first, second and the third book), and my friends in school doesn't even like Harry Potter as much I do, or not at all.

Is anyone else a bit dissappointed by the cover of the new book? It's a bit boring. Come on. It's the bloody FINAL HARRY POTTER BOOK. Couldn't you be more elaborate than this?: I mean the back part is pretty cool with Voldemort and all, but look at the front. Not very eye-catching there. And why they be in the Colosseum? Hmm?!

I've never liked the english cover of the Harry Potter books. Here in sweden, when they translate the book, they have amazing covers! This cover was from the halfblood prince.

That is an amazingly cool cover.
Also, they are in the Coliseum for Death Hallows because THEY GO BACK IN TIME. Don't pretend like it won't happen. Because it will!

I know, why didn't Rowling hire Alvario Tapia (thats the name of the guy who did that cover) to make the english cover.. Do you want them to do that because of Sirius?

Was Sirius alive during the Roman Empire?! That'd be pretty wicked.
I was sad when he died.. but I'm pretty okay with his death.

Meh. Cedric was a pretty boy. Now Sirius was a dirty dog man with a hypogriff. Much better.
Also, he HAS to come back! He was killed by a curtain, for god's sakes. No one that cool just goes 'poof' without coming back some way or another.

JKR has said that no one is going to be coming back from the dead... I am pretty sure.
