She has A LOT to wrap up in VII
And with her penchant for novella-length offerings, how will she ever get it done??
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

If Draco dies, I'll be annoyed, and not just 'cause I love his nasty-assed self. It's the easy out--"I can only redeem myself by dying in the cause of truth and right." It's a good argument against Snape, but Snape dying in Harry's cause will inflict the most angst on Harry.
Neville? I think he's a duck in the shooting gallery. There's the whole slew of second tier folk--Pansy, the Patils, Seamus--that are up for grabs.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Did Rowling just say that someone will die? Because that's been happening every book now since Book Four. If that's all it is, I can stop avoiding it.
If it's something more specific than that, I don't want to know.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
bt, I was more worried about the lack of wrapping up anything in VI
P-C, it's a specific body count.

That's what I was beginning to be afraid of. I don't want to know the number!

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Then stay the course.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

That's how the headline reads, but if you read the actual quote, it comes across as more like a minimum. She said, "One character got a reprieve. But I have to say two die that I didn't intend to die... A price has to be paid. We are dealing with pure evil here. They don't target extras do they? They go for the main characters. Well, I do."

Hey. New board.
I gotta say, if Harry doesn't die I may have to FIE UPON THEE to that series forever.
That said, I'm pretty sure he won't.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
And I stand corrected by Jon.
Really, David? I'd much rather have the Buffy-end-of-series moment. Let The Boy Who Lived actually have, you know, a life. I rather hope that Ginny also survives, because I'm a sap that way.
