It's rumoured to be longer than the 5th book, amazingly. Still, that's not surprising, if you get what I mean. A rumour for the name is Harry Potter and the Green Flame Torch. You can go to the Harry Potter Rumour Hall It had a bunch of good rumours about the 5th book, so you can see if any of their predictions were correct.

Interesting theory... but don't you think that Dumbles is simply too good to display such arrogance? Well, I don't know. I'm so happy that the system didn't log me off this time that I can't remember what I wanted to post! Aaargh!

Hermione, Ron, Harry, Draco, and Dumbledore are too important in the books to die. It's "impossible"
*NOTE* If one of those characters died in the 5th book, I have no way of knowing as I haven't read the book yet.

Please don't make ANY references to book five - thank you. Please also bear in mind that some people haven't read any of the books yet but will in future so no spoilers should be posted.

It is possible, but I think that the plot revolves around Harry, Hermione, and Ron, so it's kind of hard for any of them to die until the 7th book.
Also, J.K. stated in an interview that the 6th book will be smaller than the fifth. I hope she sticks to her word, because I don't want to take forever on the sixth book...the bad thing she said is that the 7th book will be huge.

The bad part is it'll also take more time and probably be harder to read.  Well, it doesn't matter as long as the story is good!

I totally agree that none of the three main characters will die until the seventh book, if ever.  The same goes for  Voldemort  and Dumbledore, but that still leaves a lot of characters to depart before the seventh book.

///NOTE\\\This may contain spoilers if you haven't read up to book 4. And also, some of this isn't about book 6, but could have something to do with book six when it comes out. ----- Mrs. Rowling said the rest of the books would have some couples in them. Here's some couplings I found, but I reviewed. Ron x HermioneIn an interview, Rowling said that there is something going on between Ron and Hermione, but Ron doesn't know/understand it yet. Ron x Fluer Could happen, but probably not. Ron does like Fluer, but Fluer really doesn't notice him all that much. Thanks to MuggleNet for the couplings. I'll get more in about that later... ----- More Possible Titles Harry Potter and the Pyramids of Furmat Harry Potter and the Alchemist's Cell Harry Potter and the Forest of Shadows Harry Potter and the Fortress of Darkness ----- Coincidences The Number 12 There are a lot of things in the Harry Potter Books that have to do with the number twelve, such as: 12 Street Lamps on Privet Drive (BOOK 1) 12 Hands on Dumbledore's Watch (BOOK 1) 12 Letters Arrive for Harry on Friday (BOOK 1) 12 Uses for Dragon's Blood were discovered by Dumbledore (BOOK 1) 12 School Govorners (BOOK 2) 12 OWLS are awarded to Percy and Bill [were] (BOOK 2) 12 Bulldogs are owned by Aunt Marge (BOOK 3) 12 Durmstrang students arrive for the Triwizard Tournament (BOOK 4) 12 Candles are in the background on the Child Jacket (BOOK 5)
Chapter 13 In the books, in Chapter 13 the culprit always reveals him/herself. Book 1: Snape threatens Quirrel, who Harry thinks is innocent. Book 2: Tom Riddle appears. Book 3: Wormtail fakes his death for the second time. Book 4: Moody turns Malfoy into a ferret, then we think he's a good guy.
Characters Named After Flowers This probably is just J.K. was looking for names, but there are quite a few people named after flowers: Petunia Dursley, Lily Potter, Violet (fat lady's friend), Lavender Brown, Fluer Delacour, Moaning Myrtle, Madam Poppy Pomfrey, Remus Lupin, Narcissa Malfoy.
That's all of the rumours I have....for now.

I'm willing to bet Ron+Hermione, I mean, through all of the books they've been arguing about something or other, and that usually leads to romance. I never noticed all those twelves, but it was probably accidental, same with the flower names.

"Rumour would have it that the next book will not be sold directly to under eighteens. The explanation currently being suggested for this is that the publishers are concerned about the excessive levels of graphic violence and more mature relationships portrayed in the new book. … Negotiations are underway with online booksellers on the best way to enforce the prohibition."

Thanks Tielhard, that is indeed good news. Now is it possible (without seeming rude) for this discussion to be taken elsewhere? I am really rather weary of Harry Potter threads, as has been mentioned by others. I could also maybe add that I am sure there are thousands of websites devoted entirely to discussions of this sort. It doesn't really fit in here to go round and round the same subject ad nauseum. Feel free to disagree!

Why does that have to happen? I'll still read it, though.

Tiel, I hope you are aware that by my post , I didn't mean YOU should go anywhere. Just the whole business of thread after thread on the same old same old, was getting to me.As I said there are many sites on the web for this sort of thing. The place is not here and from your post I can see that you agree and are as fed up with it as I.

Well, I happen to like those books, and this website, and so to make a post on this website can let me talk about the book.
I think Harry+Luna
