With the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows only eight days away, Rowling's fans are abuzz with speculation about what will happen in the much-anticipated final book and how the series will end. And as expected, some pranksters are throwing around some rather far-fetched (but very funny) ideas. Let me state for the record that I highly doubt Harry will meet his death when Hedwig the Owl pecks off his pecker. Nice try, though.
For what it's worth, my guess is that Harry, Hermione and Ron will all still be alive at the end of Book 7 but will come away from Hogwarts having lost many more of their classmates and friends. Where Snape's loyalty lies is the biggest mystery to me, but I'm sure that will be addressed in Deathly Hallows as well. In fact, I think it will be revealed that Snape played a bigger role in the death of Harry's parents than we've been led to believe until now, but the question is, does Snape redeem himself by helping Harry in the final book, or does he end up siding with Voldemort? What will become of Hagrid and everyone else still standing at Hogwarts, once all is said and done?
For the time being, we can only guess what will happen in the final book. Maybe I'm being overly optimistic -- maybe Harry and his friends will meet their demise in Deathly Hallows, or maybe Snape will do everything in his power to keep Harry from killing Voldemort. But whether our favorite little wizard lives or dies, one thing we can be sure of for now is this: Rowling will deliver a dark, tragic and very compelling read that'll have us glued 'til the very end. And no, there will be no threesomes in Gryffindor House.
