Harry Potter 7

Harry Potter 7; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be released on July 21st! I can hardly wait. A student came down to tell me the news yesterday at lunch. Everybody here knows that I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan. Maybe it's the Hogwarts banner hanging in the Media Center, the Harry Potter movie poster hanging in my office, the Harry Potter soundtrack I play occasionally, or the fact that I dressed up as Prof. McGonagall at Halloween.

The entire Harry watching community has been waiting to find out when the final book in the series was being released. The rumors were that it would be in July, which is also when the 5th movie (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, July 13) is coming out. We can get our HP fix all at once! The rumors are flying about who is going to be killed off, whether Snape is good or bad, if Harry is actually going to die! I feel that Voldemort definitely has to die, and I think Snape is another candidate there. I still think that he is acting as a double agent. And will Harry get back with Ginny? There are so many questions to be answered that #7 is going to be huge!

I haven't preordered it yet, although I received the email from Barnes and Noble. I have never been to a Harry Potter party at midnight when the book is released at a bookstore, and I would like to do that for once. With HP6, I had to wait until 2:00pm when the book was finally delivered. I could have read it twice over by then! I hope the Keys bookstores are doing something so I can start reading right at 12:01!
