| June 5th, 2007 at 02:51am I don't think I wont an 8th book. I mean, there isn't going to be one, but I wouldn't like it if she wrote it after all. The encyclopedia sounds nice though. |

Nah, 8th book would be a bit...blegh. I dunno, everything will be over so there'll be no story to tell.
She'd only write it if she lost all her money on a drunken trip to Vegas. |

| June 15th, 2007 at 06:57pm It would be so cool to make a 10 page book explaining the rest of Harry's life (if he's to live). |

Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 17669 | June 15th, 2007 at 07:15pm Nah, I think she'll leave that up to the imagination of the readers.
She did say that even after the series has fiished, there'll be lots to discuss and debate about, and I think that's better than "Well, Harry married Ginny and they had four kids name blah blah blah and blah. THen they went to blah blah blah, and then Harry got old and died." |

| June 16th, 2007 at 05:56am I don't think it would be very big though, I mean it'll include spells but I don't think it'll occupy alot. |

| June 16th, 2007 at 06:56am I want it to be big and heavy and every hc HP nerd will have one and worship it as his Bible.
Ok, anyways, FP has stated the reason why I don't want an 8th book. If she wrote what happened to Harry & co. it would all end. But even after the 7th book we would have topics to discuss and stories to imagine. That way the magic would never end. |

Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 17669 | June 16th, 2007 at 07:15am Yeah, the only thing that's keeping me from being really depressed about the 7th book finally getting here is the fact that she's said there'll be plenty to discuss and stuff, because I'm actually sad enough as it is that it's all finishing. I don't want something to put the final nail in the coffin so there's nothing to talk about anymore. |

...pffft I'm weird. |

| June 17th, 2007 at 06:17am You're right! But since the 4th movie came out, a lot of teenie girl fans started reading from OotP just because of Dan.
I really don't like those people. Unlike me who started reading SS when I was 10 |

Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 17669 | June 17th, 2007 at 09:13am Haha yeah. I wish I'd got into it sooner, because then I could have been excited for the third and fourth, whereas when the fourth came out, I was like "Oh, I'll read that when I've finished the third one." There was no OMG FOURTH HP.
Not like there was with the fifth and sixth.
I've never been excited this much before for a book or a film or whatever, and it's really quite depressing to know that I won't feel like it again.
But I'll look back and say "that was a magical part of my childhood," (excuse the pun) and I'll be all happy and nostalgic and I'll did out my books and read them again, ignoring all the thumb prints and stuff from when I've read them so many times before. |

Well I'm just a very insightful, well educated, and generally brilliant person.
Although, being rather cleverer than most people, my mistakes tend to be correspondingly huger.
