Hating the LOM!

| I'm a huge (some say obsessed) fan of the Harry Potter books. I've read them all at least 4 or 5 times. I can not wait for the 7th book to come out, yet I'm sad that it is the last one. The movies are great, but the books are better, of course. I can't wait to see the 5th movie too--the Twin's "exit" from Hogwarts was one of the highlights of the 5th book for me and I hope they do it well in the movie.
I think Dumbledoor is dead, but he was already partially dead before he was "killed" by Snape. Remember in the first book when Snape (or is it Hermoine) talks about the "stopper of death" potion? I think Snape used that on Dumbledoor after he was injured while getting the Slytherin ring horcrux. I think Dumbledoor would have died then, but Snape saved him--or delayed (stoppered) his death until they could set things in motion for Snape to be with Voldemort without any suspicion by Voldemort. (see John Granger's book Unlocking Harry Potter: Five Keys for the Serious Reader for more details on this theory). I think the Twins sacrifice themselves while fighting the death eaters/Voldemort in book 7. I'm so scared that Hagrid will die too---all of Harry's "caregivers" except Hagrid have been killed so far. I think Harry's anger and explosive behavior is linked to Voldemort transferring some of himself into Harry when he got the scar. (see John Granger again). John Granger points out you don't know anything about what Voldemort is doing throughout book 6---and that doesn't mean that Voldemort is sitting quietly somewhere--it probably means Voldemort is doing something really bad, since the book is really only from Harry's point of view. A point of view that was proven almost completly wrong/inaccurate in its perception (especially about Snape) in books 1-5. That's my 2 cents for now.  _________________   |
