I'm in love with Molly Weasley. "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU B*TCH!"

I was right. The two characters JKR killed at the last minute were Remus and Tonks. She did it because she spared Arthur's life. That p*sses me off. Especially if she cried just by writing "Next to Fred, Harry saw that Remus and Tonks had also died."
Remus, Tonks and Teddy better be in the encyclopedia. After book three, all Remus did was mindless stock character things. JKR should have sequels. Remus Lupin and the Shoebox Project, And also Aberforth Dumbledore and the Goat Who Was Bleeding From Strange Places.

Yes, I read that also. Remus didn't just do stock character things, he reassured Harry about his dad and had heart talks with harry in book 7.
Of course Remus and his family will be in the encyclopedia.

I miss Remus, though. I miss the Harry Potter books, too. And the fandom is mindbogglingly large. Where to begin?

Remus was totally deprived of an awesome death and he didnt get to avenge Sirius. The Molly thing was cool but I really wanted someone with a legitmate grudge to kill Bealltrix. Molly could have said that line to anyone, but Bellatrix tortued Nevilles family and killed Sirius it would have been awesome if someone who had been affected by what Bellatrix had done killed her.
I approve of Remus Lupin and the Shoebox Project. I hope the encylopedia doesnt focus on epilogue stuff, I really like the era before Harry better. I think theyre more interesting.

Yeah i agree...i really wanted it to be Neville who killed Bellatrix, but i think Remus would have been good for that role as well... it seemed to me that Remus and Tonks just died for no reason...the fact that we didn't get to see how they died or who they were fighting at the time annoyed me... And they got less recognition than Dobby when they died...

The encyclopedia goes beyond epilogue stuff, JKR said she wanted to put stuff in it like Dean's backstory.

I wonder how the encyclopia will be formatted. I hope it's in the form of a novel and not how HP Lexicon's encyclopedia is set up.

But it's still one thing to just be told something and another to actually read something yourself

Just a thought: We all wondered about where the names of Ron and Hermione's children came from. Well, it's well-known that as a teenager Ron fancied the barmaid of The Three Broomsticks, Rosmerta. Do you think that's where Rose came from? It's a long shot but it might put some sort of frame on the names.

I just finished reading Stephen King's review of Deathly Hallows, and it is pretty amazing. I highly recommend reading it. www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20044270_20044274_20050689,00.html
