Guess who's the Half Blood Prince.. You'll never know til u read the book..

Here are some of the Fantastical Facts of the book..
1. new Minister of Magic - Rufus Scrimgeour, almost certainly the Scrimgeour mentioned in OP as asking pointed questions of Tonks and Kingsley about Sirius Black. According to HBP, he was head of the Aurors, so it makes sense.

2. Romances galore: Ron, Lavender Brown, Hermione, Ginny, Dean Thomas, Harry, Hagrid, Olympe, Lupin, Tonks, Bill, Fleur...

3. Deaths galore: (fingers crossed)

4. Harry inherits everything...

5. New teacher

6. Who is R.A.B.? My guess: Regulus Black. That seems to be everyone else's guess, too. We're all so clever, aren't we?

7. So why did Dumbledore trust Snape?

8. Or maybe Snape is just really...

BOOK REVIEW
A major character dies by the end of the latest Harry Potter book; readers who bore easily may feel a bit done in themselves. It's not that "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" is dull, exactly. In places, it rises to a pitch resembling suspense, or at least a passing curiosity about what might happen next. No, the main problem is that J.K. Rowling has now written six of these bricks. Even if they were getting better, they're certainly not getting any fresher.

To enlighten folks who haven't already been reading themselves cross-eyed since midnight Friday, the new book typically finds Harry afflicted with crises both magical and mundane. On the one hand, intimations abound of impending Armageddon -- as you might expect for a series supposedly one book shy of the ultimate confrontation between good and evil. But Rowling also finds time for all her customary wizard-school shenanigans, and Harry puts in long hours mediating between Ron and Hermione, his hopelessly lovesick friends....

In the new book's best scene, Harry's mentor Dumbledore solemnly tells him that, "You are protected by your ability to love." In other words, the only thing that distinguishes Harry from his evil adversary is the simple capacity for human tenderness. And yet for Harry, as for the new breed of movie loner-superhero, to express love is finally seen as a distraction or, worse, a weakness. When the seventh and final Potter novel finally arrives, would it be too much to hope that the hero prevails, not because he can manfully sacrifice his capacity for love, but because he can't?

oh, goodness - this I didn't know pa!Â* who's writing the script - si Steven Kloves na, in partnership with Michael Goldenberg?
been so fixated with the Order of the Phoenix filming / release - forgot that back-to-back filming diay ila plano with Half-Blood Prince...

thanks for coming up with this thread, 8_cRawlin_baby_8!Â* :mrgreen:
quite early - but hey, that's just two years from now, huh.

so for those who haven't read HBP yet - you can still get your copies at your suking bookstores.Â*
National Bookstore is selling the hardbound copy at P899.. Next sale (probably 20% off the price) will be in August.
i'm not sure if the paperback is due for release in RP this year (probably half the cost of the hardbound) - but do check NBS from time to time for this.

naa ba ni sa mga public libraries? dunno, but certainly hope so...

meantime, let's get this show on the road, bebe!Â*

Much better if you have all the 7-series book plus the movies. This is a collector series.

Guess who's the Half Blood Prince.. You'll never know til u read the book..

it's Professor Severus Snape...oops! sorry to those who haven't read it yet...my bad!

but anyway, i love HP books and this (Book 6) was the worst...of all..hmmm, except for Book 7..for the time being, hehe.."HP & the Half-Blood Prince" was such a big disppointment for me...the death of Dumbledore served no justice!! Knowing his enormous powers and abilities as a wizard, I have expected his death to be not sooo simple as described in the book!?!? I would have enjoyed the book if their were more dueling and some more action...Well, Book 7 would have to be last of the series accdg. to Rowling..It better be exciting...
