    I don't look like a liittle girl, thank God.

    But I'm all about marrying a hobbit. It's too bad Jeff Gordon got away from me.

    I dunno about Radcliffe, though. Those pics of him (almost nude) sort've gave me the heebie jeebies. I will agree with you on Elijah, though.

    I have a fondness for younger guys, for the record.

    And Elijah is gorgeous. Only movie poster in my apartment right now is one of him from LOTR.

    Me too, but probably cause I am, too.

    As for LotR, do you expect there to be a Hobbit?

    ...So back on topic, did she ever say when to expect an encyclopedia-esque work made?

    Ha! I forgot about this link I got while at work. It answers many questions you have/had.

    I think Snape's ignominious death made him one of the biggest heros of all.

    Dobby's death moved me enormously.

    And from the moment Harry entered Snape's memories in the pensieve until the end of the book, I was bawling like a baby. JR had to ask if I was okay.

    As for the poster who said that it was unlikely that one of the 'big three' didn't die, I direct you to Lord of the Rings. The hobbits made it home. Those who joined their party along the way weren't so lucky. This strikes me as very similiar (not in a copycat kind of way, just in an emotional sense). Besides which, she's writing for kids, after all. Death isn't something her younger readers have probably dealt with and some of the character's death were hitting pretty close to home for that age group.

    I'm late to this party but I wasn't home to get my Harry Potter last weekend since I drove to NYC instead. :D

    My roommate just laughed at me as I lay on the bed crying like a small child.
