yeah, but, the message in the horcrux, from, of course, RAB, says that RAB knows that he will be dead by the time this is found. I think that this just further proves the point. And Anton, Horcruxes can't be made unless someone is killed, so Harry couldn't be a horcruz, because he wasn't killed. And if he was killed, he would be a crappy horcruz, because Voldys soul would be gone anyways. And Harry sent Trelawney away so that he could talk to dumbles by himself, thats why no one learned of the prediction

i'm pretty sure that R.A.B. is Regulus Black, Sirius' brother, that Voldemort killed.

hmm, well, i don't have a lot of time right now, but i'll post a few points here quickly HERMIONE WAS SOOOO OOC! i can't believe no one has mentioned this yet. K, first of all, Hemrione has NEVER been portrayed as a jealous person before, and she usually didn't care about a lot of what people said about her, but all of a sudden she was jealous of Ron???? That was weird! and also, where was her classic bossiness, and her complete trust and backing of Harry 100%?!?!?!?! thats one of her hugest character points!! she was such a flat character in this book, it made me so angry. she was even lacking her 'run to the library without an explanation every 5 seconds' character trait. dammit. Harry randomly kissing Ginny, and him 'all of a sudden' having an 'animal in his chest'. that was completely out of nowhere. Either JKR has been reading some completely horrible fanfction, or she just cannot write love/romance at all! Harry and Ron throughout the series have been portrayed as completely useless around girls, and then out of nowhere they start kissing Ginny and Lavender?!?! that was odd. i'm still not entirely convinced snape is evil: i have to correct static. Dumbledore never said 'please' or 'no' to Snape, all he said was 'Severus' basically, it goes a little bit like this: Snape has never had a character developement chapter before, which he got in the second chapter of the book. This basically goes to prove that whatever happened in that chapter would of course become extremely relevant later in the book. Of course i am speaking of the unbreakable vow. I think that Snape's is a bit of a coward, and that he fears death, and so therefore he would rather keep his oath to Narcissa about keeping Malfoy safe than showing his true colours for the good side (if in fact, the good side is his true colours. remember this is only a theory) Also, what else needs to be kept in mind, or at least discussed, is the small possibility that Dumbledore EXPLICITLY trusts Snape, and Snape was the only one that Dumbledore told about where he was going (apart from Harry) and Dumbledore knew that something horrible might happen. This might explain the pleading to Severus in the tower. Perhaps Dumbledore was pleading to Snape to end his pain as well as save Malfoy. Perhaps Snape knew that he might be asked to do this last task for Dumbledore, and that he would be the only one Dumbledore trusted to be able to do it, as any unforgivable curse performed would be waved off as something that had to be done for Snape to stay in disguise. It would also help his disguise with the death Eaters and Voldemort. ALSO, as Dumbledore said, Draco does not have the willpower to kill him, and i doubt any of the other members of the staff, other than Snape, would have been able to come through in the clutch, and actually perform the curse. The character building that JKR has done on Dumbledore has led me to this small possibilty. I doubt that Dumbledore could have made the mistake of trusting Severus had there not been undeniable proof in favour of doing so. As we know, the only mistake Dumbledore has ever made was concerning Harry and the witholding of the prophecy because of LOVE. I do not think that Dumbledore holds (sorry, held) those same feelings for Snape as he did for Harry. The one last thing that we can't forget is the small hint that JKR drops in the form of Dumbledore telling Harry about his memories of Tom (Voldemort) coming the one last time to ask for the Defence Against the Dark Arts post, and why THE POST COULD ONLY BE HELD FOR ONE YEAR. Not enough information was supplied on this subject, and so i cannot make any further guesses as to what effect this might have on Snapes actions. also, just for those people out there who are R/Hr shippers, dont get too happy, JKR said that the final relatioship between those two would require some major readong between the lines, and this book was WAY too obvious for my liking. also, JKR seemed to be in too much of a rush to get to the end. in the other books, she always has some filler space where she can character build or make background story. she never did that in this one, and that disappointed me. all in all, this book disappointed me, i have to say, and not just because of the ships that sailed. and then sunk. horribly. and yeah, also, we learn for real that the 'weapon he knows not' (voldemort) refers to love. Harry and Ginny were nowhere close to love, and he's going to need a lot of love when he gets to battle voldy, and i doubt that Ginny will give it to him. even if Harry and Mione never move beyond platonic, she will always be the #1 girl in his life. in addition to that, Hermione had to comprimise herself to be with Ron, and i doubt that that will continue, she doesnt stand for that sort of thing. Also, they never actually got together. anyways, i have SO MUCH more to say, im currently trying to arrange my thoughts properly so they wont be all disarrayed like this post. when i finally do, i will make a properly organized post defending my views and the like on the book. so yeah, ciao for now

so i'm sure i'll probably take a bunch of criticism for making this topic so quicky, but yeah, i already read the book, took me about 4 and a half hours, and i must say: S P O I L E R A L E R T i was extremely unpleased with the way it was done. JKR changed all the characters horrifically. Everyone was OOC and i hope she is just trying to throw us all a curveball with what ashe is doing because this book seriously was nowheer near the calibre of the others. I'll talk more about this when you other people have had a chance to read the books. Either that or i'll wait till the flaming starts and i'll try and defend myself.
