Hmmmm the covers of the book, and the illustrations -

18 is on the Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore...

do we really learn a lot from this? Rita skews the truth - but Harry is quick to place the ages of this time of Albus and Harry's age now!

Who conjured the Silver Doe? Who's patronus? reminded me of when Harry and Hermione were mixing with time in an earlier book, and Harry saw a patronus over the lake, he thought he saw his father, but later learns he saw his own Patronus... is that what is happening with the Silver Doe?

Only a true Gryffindor... their daring, nerve, and chivalry set Gryffindors apart! Will this come into play often thru the book?

Now the scene that is Ron's head imagining Hermione and Harry - did anyone else want to scream.. "Have you not scene Star Wars?" (remember the graves of the Potters said 1985 - and of course Star Wars had this same trio of friends fighting the dark lord, and Han Solo telling Luke that he would step out of Luke's way to Princess Leia?? )

Star Wars, Lord of the Rings... tale as old as time...

Now we learn Voldermort's name is "Taboo" brilliant! and we go to Luna's home...

Xeno encourages other to help Potter, but he is weak, strong in his love for his daughter.. so we are brought back to the wedding - another thread is woven into the tale - I love learning the Brother's "Fairy Tale" Now will there be another book of just wizard fairy tales??? (remember when she put out those tiny books on Quidditch and Beasts? we just found a copy at used book sale!)

and then the scene in Luna's room, the gold ink of chains "friends... friends.... friends"

This made me sad as I realized how strong the bonds of friendship are - and how fragile in real life!

Wanting to discuss just this chapter... interesting

To learn all about the Deathly Hallows. How will this help? and why doesnt Hermione believe? could it be all that wandering around the forest for months?

Peverall - Marvolo Gaunt.. Voldomorts Grandfather...

and that saying again "Neither can live while the other survives..."

and the snitch says "I open at the close" I never liked riddles!

Now on Potterwatch we have Lee Jordan, Kingsley, Lupin, and Fred are heard from...

news of more deaths...Dean Thomas gets away... again!

and now the intensity is kicked up a notch, and I had to step away from the book!! (the title alone suggests not good!)

Just wanted to say that I've been enjoying your comments Reader! Like others have mentioned I've been a little concerned about responding because I don't want to inadvertently give away what happens later in the books.
