(*I* don't think Harry's death counts, but, then, I also don't read children's books. Especially not ones where the names are so idiotic that they drive me completely out of the book, and the less said about the fans, the better.)
uh, i only skimmed the thing, did i miss where harry potter dies? i thought it said voldemort dies? i don't read the books, but i like to know what happened anyway, haha. when i heard dumbledore died in whatever book that was, i read that last chapter of a friend's book to see how he died.
other thing, did this person really read the book? or is this one of those, i am a fan and this is what i think is gonna happen, kinds of things? cause i've been reading everywhere the book doesn't come out till the 21st and that there have been no leaks despite people trying to post spoilers about this and that. i dunno.
I've got a partial copy of the same book he's reading. If it's not legit, it's 700+ pages of fanfic that mimics Rowling closely enough to fool fans (him) and non-fans (me) alike.
And no leaks? Uh, there were at least a hundred ARCs, as well as the many hundreds of thousands of copies printed in advance. They're trying their best, but stopping *all* the leaks is flatly unbelievable.
ah, got it. yeah. i'm a non-fan. coulda fooled me. cause you know, i can't imagine anyone wasting THAT much time writing a 700+ page summary if they didn't think it was legit... oye. i guess i'll find out on friday what happened, haha. i just wanna know who dies. that's all.

Date: 2007-07-18 10:55 am (UTC)does that mean voldemort died? or harry? cause then it says the epiloge thing, with harry having children, so i would think that voldemort died?
