I predict that Harry figures out he's the final Horcrux, lets Draco take him out, Neville finishes off V, therefore still fulfilling The Prophecy . And then, Spike becomes the Shanshu .
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
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."

Shit's all sorts of different now.

What is even happening?
I really thought Harry was going to be the death in this book.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Hey, look! You can read L. Frank Baum's The Sea Faires online. I didn't know that.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
This guy's not a bad writer:
The prettiest scenery in all England--and if I am contradicted in that assertion, I will say in all Europe--is in Devonshire, on the southern and southeastern skirts of Dartmoor, where the rivers Dart and Avon and Teign form themselves, and where the broken moor is half cultivated, and the wild-looking uplands fields are half moor. In making this assertion I am often met with much doubt, but it is by persons who do not really know the locality. Men and women talk to me on the matter who have travelled down the line of railway from Exeter to Plymouth, who have spent a fortnight at Torquay, and perhaps made an excursion from Tavistock to the convict prison on Dartmoor. But who knows the glories of Chagford? Who has walked through the parish of Manaton? Who is conversant with Lustleigh Cleeves and Withycombe in the moor? Who has explored Holne Chase? Gentle reader, believe me that you will be rash in contradicting me unless you have done these things.

I spent a fortnight in Tiverton 10 years ago. I walked a gloriously green river path every night and caressed the wood of a thousand year old church and stumbled across an unexpected, breath taking stone circle on Dartmoor. I'm with Mr. Baum.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I hadn't heard of Classic Reader before, but I've used Project Gutenberg. They have a pretty good L. Frank Baum selection too.
Looks like Classic Reader makes reading online easy and dowloading for reading offline awkward, and Project Gutenberg does just the reverse.

Sorry, my mislead. That's not Baum, but Trollope.

Blissfully misled.
The memories are still just as lovely.

It sounds lovely, but when I hear "Torquay" my brain immediately leaps to Basil Fawlty.
