Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows-WARNING-SPOILERS

[CFTraveler]

DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND THIS THREAD IS TO DISCUSS THE BOOK, SO DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS YET!


I'll start- I always thought Snape was a good guy.

[blacktiger057]

I thought that Harry was a horcrux...before I read the 7th book, I dedicated one week of my life to reread books 1-6. In book 2(I think), Dumbledore even said that Voldemort poured a little of his soul into Harry, and that is essentially what horcruxes are.

The only reason I thought that RAB was Regulus Black was because I read the Mugglenet book . Alot of the theories were correct. Great job Mugglenet!

I still thought Dumbledore would 'pull a gandalf', but at least he could talk with Harry at the end. And my fav quote from the series is my sig.

I cried when Snape died, when the epilogue ended, and in malfoy manor when I thought Hermione was going to die. Oh, and I also cried when Dobby, Fred, and Voldy died(yeah, I'm a little too emotionally attached to the whole series ). I just feel sorry for Tom because he made these big elborate plans to kill Harry, and then was foiled by a simple expelliarmus. And a bad childhood.

Did anyone else notice that Snape, Voldy, and Harry had very similiar childhoods, but all became different people? Harry was good, Snape was in the middlish, and Voldemort was bad. So it just comes to show you that "It is our choices, Harry, that determine what we truly are, far more than our abilities."

I LOVE HARRY POTTER!

So did I. So when Harry ended up in the astral and talked to Dumbledore, I was wondering.

I cried when Snape died,

I didn't cry but I was very sad for him. I was very sad for him from the prior book when they showed his youth and how the guys at Hogwart's treated him. I knew that he was in love with Harry's mom, so I knew he was looking out for him, especially after killing Dumbledore. He kept yelling at him to run away.

Oh, and I also cried when Dobby, Fred, and Voldy

For some reason, Dobby's death hit me harder than any of the rest (besides Dumbledore in the previous book). He was so cool! But then Kreacher more than made up for him.

I just feel sorry for Tom because he made these big elborate plans to kill Harry, and then was foiled by a simple expelliarmus. And a bad childhood.

I just felt sorry for Moldybutt because he was so wrong about everything, and the knowledge that he could never 'get' it.

Snape was in the middlish,

I thought that Harry was just lucky- but of course it was more than that. But IMO Snape was the real hero, because he sacrificed his whole life to help Dumbledore in the quest to defeat Moldybutt, and had to kill him. That had to be hard, knowing how close they really were.

I LOVE HARRY POTTER!

Me too- I hope the next series is about their kids. Poor kids with those names!

Sure it is a war, but I was amazed by how many characters were killed off in the last book. I lost track of some of them because they were bumped off so casually.

Mostly I just want to keep reading what everyone else has to say about the book.

[blacktiger057]

I can't believe that Lupin and Tonks didn't even get a Death Scene...even the little bird got a death scene, c'mon!

[blacktiger057]

I think that Snape's death was one of the most touching moments in the book. He said "look at me" because he wanted to die looking into Lilly's eyes. I just found that very touching and sad.

But I say Snape was in the middle because JK Rowling said that if it weren't for Lilly, Snape would have stayed with Voldemort.

[CFTraveler]

JK Rowling said that if it weren't for Lilly, Snape would have stayed with Voldemort.

What does she know? She's just the author!

Hello all,

Did anybody catch the recent news about Dumbledore from Rowling? I didn't see that coming, it never occurred to me. Did it occur to anyone else here? When you think about it really fits in with the book, I can't believe it never crossed my mind.

[CFTraveler]

I only caught about two seconds of it so I didn't get the details- So was Grindenwald his bf? And is she going to write a book about this?

I knew at the end of book six that dumbledore asked snape to kill him.. Was weird when it was proven in book seven
