    Im glad the main characters are deciding to say. It just wouldn't seem right to switch right in the middle. My neice and nephew love this series and it's all there fault that I got addicted to:)

    I love how this series has succeeded both in print and on film. I also love having watched these kids age. So here's to seeing the last in the series.

    Ann: Yes he is.

    Wolfbaby: Feed this addiction. It's reasonably harmless.

    Stewart: I raise a glass with you to the success of both.

    John: For the last 3 book releases, I have picked them up on a Saturday morning and read them twice through before Monday. I suspect this time will be no different.

    Imma: I have survived the initial phase of hell week.

    Sweet! I'm glad to hear this news. I can't imagine Emma Watson NOT playing Hermione; it was bad enough when Richard Harris died (still not liking Michael Gambon much). Daniel is indeed growing older, but then again so is Harry. The books have gotten progressively darker, and I think that Daniel, Rupert, and Emma are quite capable of growing with their characters.

    This July should be fun with Order of the Phoenix in theaters and Deathly Hallows in my mailbox!

    (My daughter and I are addicted to this series, can you tell?)

    Songbird: I'm addicted too! I can't imagine any other Hermione and I hope Emma finishes the films.

    I think I might have to be one of those people at the bookstore at midnight the night the book goes on sale for this one. I'm worried that the secrets in this book will be hard to keep secret for long and I don't want it to be spoiled.
