Book Six spoilers plus a tea plea.

News Bulletin, Bitches!

JKR has made an announcement regarding Book Six

Is nothing sacred, woman? She better kill somebody that nobody remembers. ::hides Theodore behind her back:: I'm just saying. ::hides Neville in linen closet:: I'm the one who whacks people in this universe, not her! ::hides Dean and Seamus:: She's infringing on my territory! ::hides entire Weasley clan, with the exception of Percy in same room as Crabbe and Goyle::

Oh, d'you think it's Percy? I hope it's not Oliver. Could be Victor. Or Fleur!

Remus has suffered enough, oooooh maybe it's Peter.

My problem with knowing this now, apart from the fact that I didn't want to know any spoilers and the media apparently don't give a fuck, is that now I'm going to be stressed out the entire time I read Book Six, wondering who she'll have whacked.

This sucks, dude.

Would some benevolent soul in the UK be able to pop over to Tescos/Sainsbury's/Waitrose and get me some fruit tea? I have people who normally do this, but one's on holiday and the other, well, he's got memory issues. Nothing with lemon or ginger please. I will reimburse or um, write you something.

Hmm. Am I the only one who's not really surprised by this? I think I just sort of presumed that there would be deaths in every book after Cedric. It's a war, after all - and people do die. If she didn't want any deaths to happen, then Cedric wouldn't have died, obviously. I'm concerned about who and all that...but I'm not surprised at all. The only real objections I'll have is if it IS Harry, but that's just a personal wibble of mine >.<

As I was telling mecurtin I don't think it's a matter of surprise as much as it's a matter of it now being pushed to the forefront of my conscious for the next book.

I suppose that's true. I have no doubt that I'll probably do the same thing for the next book that I did for this one - and sneak so that I can find out who it is before I read the book. *grins* I handle things better if I'm prepared. And I was more thinking about some of the other fans who I *know* will be surprised - which always surprises me, just because of the tone of the books in general. But ah well, we all like to look at the books in a different way.
