I am not getting anywhere near LiveJournal until I have finished the entire new Harry Potter book so please don't be offended if I miss what's going on for awhile. :)

Also I think it's completely fucking sad that so many people are out to ruin other people's fun with this book. The reason people are so upset and uppity about spoilers (and even fake spoilers) is because mean spirited people are so determined to try and take the fun out of this for them. And the only reason for this: being mean. It's not funny, it doesn't make you look all smart and cool, so don't do it, people. A lot of people grew up with this series and for them this is a huge event. I don't see why they shouldn't be allowed to have the joy of being surprised by the ending.

I think the fact that this many people are out to read 4,224 pages (the total number in all seven books) is amazing and a great thing for novels in general. I don't see any good reason why when a large group of people get excited about something a lot of other people have to mock and/or try to ruin it. We're not asking you to read our goddamn books, we're asking you to leave us in peace while we do.
