And the writing is TINY.
Not good for the visually impaired. Although, HBP had a bigger font, which was much appreciated, although it meant I read it more quickly, which is like BUT I WANT MORE.
Still.
Yeah, British version have a lot less pages cos we're saving forests. |

Posts: 17669 | Well wouldn't you be upset if you thought we got loads more pages?
But loads more pages doesn't mean loads more words.  |

But loads more pages doesn't mean loads more words. Indeed. I'd probably be pissed yes. Like maybe a few years ago, when I didn't know about fot sizes and stuff. |

I've got a horrible feeling that I'm gonna end up being dragged out to a gig by my best friend and I'll be sitting there reading the book and just bursted into hysterical sobs every now and then. Haha. |

| Well I have doubts that he'll live, but something in my gut just says "No April, he'll live, just wait it out."
I have that whole good should triumph of evil in Sagas. Like Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. Why not in Harry Potter too. |

Posts: 17669 | Yeah, and I think mostly, because Harry deserves a happy ending moreso than any of our other brave heroes, because he's had a rather shite life.
So yes, he deserves to live and be happy and be the boy who lived times three thousand. |

Posts: 17669 | Yeah, they've had too many losses.
And you can't kill Hermione cos Ron will realise too late that he's head over heels in love with her, and you can't kill Ron because Hermione will get hysterical, and you can't kill Harry cos it's just not fair.
But I spose you could argue the case against everyone dying, so you know.
Bah, I wanna find out SO badly yet at the same time I don't. I'm getting all like...fidgetty and on edge now.
I neeeeeed book seven! |
