Harry Potter fever.
It seems as the whole world has gone Harry Potter gaga these days.
Me included, of course. I boycotted the books for the first three because of all the ruccus around them which I didn't want to be included in. Until I read the first aloud to my sister, who at the time hadn't learnt to read.
But I read the books in English. The Norwegian translation is actually quite good, but the English books are published first. No way I would be able to wait until December to read the new book! *lol*
So... Love had pre-ordered two copies, one of them which arrived on Saturday. We had a little discussion over who would get to read it first, but I won seeing I'm working most of this week so I wouldn't have time to read it now. Which meant I had to read the whole thing this weekend. And I did (actually, finished two books and started on a new one this weekend).
And... I have a few things to say about it.
SPOILER ALERT, M!(I dunno if you're done yet, you said you would savour it.)
I don't think Snape has re-joined the death eaters. There must be a reason to why Dumbledore wanted Harry to fetch Snape, not Madame Pomfrey. Like, the unbreakable vow Snape made with Narcissa. Dumbledore knew about it, I'm sure. Snape had vowed to do "it" for Draco if Draco couldn't himself, thus sparing his life. And by letting Snape do what he did, Dumbledore not only spared Draco's life, but Snape's also because he didn't break his vow (which, if he did, would have killed him). After all, Snape could have used a "crueler" spell, something that inflicted more pain than the Avada Kedavra. It seemed very "a shot in the head and you're dead" kind of execution. And I'm not sure it would be possible to save Dumbledore anyway, that potion he drank was vile.
But, I think Snape will come in handy in the end. And there must be more behind it to make Dumbledore trust him. To just say Snape regrets what he's done, that's too easy. Well, we'll see.
Oh, and another thing. Harry needs to look through all the items in Sirius' house. I think he will find something there. Something like... Slytherin's locket?
