I believe the term "encylopedia brittanica" has been used often to describe how long the last book will be.

I am so glad others feel this way. I was so disapointed in this book. It was a great read but did not feel like a stand alone the way the others did. I want to know why Harry did not do silent magic (this was the biggest school news this year) when attacking Snape. And why did NO ONE believe Harry about Malfoy after last year. It was like a rehash of no one believing that Voldemort is back. Seems like Harry would have gained a great deal of credibility. And of course Hermione should have been more supportive. I also thought the long Prime Minister intro just dangled. It never circled back.

Oh no! Two whole years to wait for answers.

(I personally wouldn't mind if she came out with a five-volume final book. LOL!)

I have to say that this one is probably my favorite book of the series. I thought all the back story of Voldemort was incredible, and the whole notion of the Horcrux is so intruiging.

Although Order was good, it dragged. Not one of my favs.

I would have liked to read more about Neville and his parents. I thought maybe Neville's mother was trying to communicate something with her son in OoP (remember the little slips of paper she pressed into his hand?) I thought this book would tell us about that.

I wish it would have explained why D had such blind faith in Snape.

All in all I did enjoy reading this book and look forward to book 7!
