We have a huge boxful coming, which will be waiting in the School library until the time we are permitted to open it. Then all the children will have a special brunch. I can hardly wait... _________________________ Wandering aimlessly through FT since 1999.

I also have one on order from the UK for the UK version. _________________________ 'Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?---Henry Ward Beecher

Just one more thing, post a few rumours here. I've got one of my own and that is I think that there will be a relationship between Bill Weasely and Fleur Delacour. Send in your's!

Because when he bought it he would still have been Tom wouldn't he? That is true, how would Ollivander know? Maybe he's involved with Voldemort? Just maybe. We'll have to wait and see ^_~

etartherat10 Mainstay Registered: Thu May 22 2003 Posts: 608 Loc: Kentucky YSA	Quote: What if that is for the 7th book and its about harry or someone dying. The chariots of light symbolize someone going to heaven (the light) and being brought there by chariots. (By the way, there have been rumours that the 7th HP book is named Harry Potter and the Chariots of Light or Harry Potter and the Green Flame Torch.) Maybe that is true, but in a recent interview, Mrs. Rowling said that she has no idea what the titles for the next books would be, so I don't think that is very possible now. It may have been before that interview, though. I got another: Harry definetly (according to this site ) will be the new Gryffindor Quidditch Team Captain. Harry is supposed to be protected on Privet Drive by magic, and maybe that magic is the Fidelus Charm. Edited by etartherat10 (Thu Jun 12 2003 09:54 AM)

PurpleFan Multiloquent Registered: Fri Oct 22 1999 Posts: 2249 Loc: New Westminster BC Canada	etharrat as I understood you to post you said you ordered 4 copies of the book so why are you on the waiting list at your Library?. And correct me if I am wrong but didn't you say you also ordered one from Britain. I think you need to order a pair of glasses if your going to read all five of your copies and the sixth one from the library. The reason I am 44th on the list is I have friends in high places.

PearlQ19 Forum Adept Registered: Wed Aug 07 2002 Posts: 183 Loc: Germany	I'm also waiting and I can't stand it!!! As to the rumors... we've had a large rumors thread in here. I don't know how to put a link to it, but it's called "Any predictions about Harry Potter 5?" I posted loads of rumors there (and I knew many!), so I don't want to repeat them all here. I don't have the time, anyway... Check the thread, it's really fun! _________________________ If at first you don't succeed, hide all evidence that you tried

etartherat10 Mainstay Registered: Thu May 22 2003 Posts: 608 Loc: Kentucky YSA	Ace_Sodium, the book is 896 pages long. I doubt that somebody could read it in less than 12 hours. And plus, not many people would start reading it at 1 in the morning.

Quote: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix reveals which character dies - a much-guarded secret - and will keep readers occupied with its 766 pages. BBC News Online's Darren Waters wrote in one of the world's first reviews: "Rowling has succeeded in crafting a book that will disappoint no true Potter fan." You appear to have a longer version, you must let us know which of the large number of editions you have that has the most pages. I am still not convinced that Scotland has its own edition, it seems very unlikely - perhaps you can provide a source for us which verifies this. _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!
