omg! i was so shocked when i found out Dumbledore died.. well, i found out even before i got to the page.. i read it in a spoiler, curious of who died as i heard from someone.. so sad.. while reading the book, i was bracing myself for what's to come.. i knew sooner or later i would come to the part where Dumbledore died.. i also knew, and believed, that he is not really dead.. you will find in DumbledoreIsNotDead.com the clues in which will make you believe that Dumbledore is not really dead.. you've gotta have some faith.. Dumbie has been in the book as long as Harry, Ron, and Hermione.. it's possible he's not really dead.. while reading the last 3 chapters of book 6, i opened my mind to clues that i might find, other than the ones already provided by other people.. how i hope i can e-mail that dude who made the site so i can tell him what i think.. in some portions of it, while Dumbledore was trying to convince Draco not to do it, i noticed (and so did Harry) that Dumbledore was slowly moving towards the edge of (?) something.. then when Snape did the curse, he (Dumbledore) fell from the tower.. as to what most have come up with, his wand was no longer to be found, people found his dead body, but at the funeral, something strange happened with his body inside the coffin.. what most believed is, has the same effects with the Phoenix.. if he was still alive, since the coffin was closed, no one saw if the body was still there after it rose to the air and burned into white smoke.. what if the story has something like Romeo and Juliet's thingy where Juliet made everyone believe that she was dead, when she only took a potion that will make her seem dead but will live again at a certain hour, but only to find that her messenger didn't get to Romeo and found him dead beside her.. everyone heard Snape say the 'Avada Kedavra' curse but we know that Snape is very good at doing charms without saying the spell, what if, since admitting he is the half-blood prince, he may have invented a spell that would make people think 'avada kedavra' curse was used but instead only a similar spell with a different effect? maybe it was a spell to make it seem Dumbledore died but then would make his body disappear like a Phoenix and then end up somewhere where Snape can secretly heal him.. anything is possible in Harry Potter.. i also thought about the comment where JKR did not seem to be upset at this happening as to what her reactions were when she had no choice but to take Sirius out of the story.. i have read that killing Sirius truly upset her but what has to be done has to be done.. *sigh* i can't wait for the 7th book to be out.. lmao.. but i feel sad knowing that it might be the last book.. if JKR doesn't make an 8th book out of the planned 7 only, then i guess i have to settle with reading the whole collection again.. i think one thing good in HBP is that Harry ended up with Ginny, and i found that sweet how they ended up.. i kinda sensed it when Harry smelled the 'love potion' thinking of flowery scents and had the same sensation when Ginny was around.. who would have thought of that? i want to read that one more time.. i hope JKR makes a book about Harry and Ginny only.. like something apart the whole 'danger' thing.. like what they are like together.. that would be sweet.. but too 'sweet valley' or 'love story' but what do we know? also, i'm beginning to think that it would be Ron and Hermione.. the latter seemed jealous that Ron was making out with Lavender Brown, and Ron was, i think, making Hermione jealous.. and in the book, Harry is thinking of the idea.. oh yeah, at the funeral, Harry saw Lupin and Tonks holding hands, just when he thought Tonks might have been inlove with Sirius.. hahaha.. what a weird turn out of things.. then Bill getting married to Fleur? eewww.. i think i might be like Ginny, Hermione, and Mrs. Weasly, we don't like Fleur.. anyway, im sure JKR will come out with more ideas for books for Harry Potter fans.. wow.. i can't wait to see the movie they would come up with HP6.. speaking of movies.. PoA really sucked, how did JKR agreed to how tha movie was made?? im excited to see GoF, i'm expecting so much from that movie.. so far its the thickest book out of all HP books.. this seems to be my longest post ever.. hahaha.. but i have to go now, so i guess more posts next time.. ima be leaving links for other HP fans out there who wants more clues..
