Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Tomorrow's the day! As of now I'm not looking at any web forum, not logging into any online game, and am not looking at Wikipedia, as I don't want some asswipe to give it away! Last time, when Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was released, some waste of skin posted forum threads to the World of Warcraft forums, announcing the big secret that happened in the book, utterly ruining it for hundreds of others who hadn't yet read the book, but who saw the message on the forums.

So, I'm avoiding them like the plague, until I've finished with the book.

Deathly Hallows is supposed to arrive sometime Saturday, before 7 PM. From the moment it arrives, Kaylin has strict instructions to leave me alone! I plan on burying myself in the book for the remainder of the weekend, until it's finished, and don't want to be disturbed.

I am curious to see how Rowling ends the story. Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry in the films, thinks both Harry and Voldemort need to die, in much the same way as his own death was the only way Holmes' could defeat Moriarty. I don't think she'll kill Harry, as it would seem to defeat the purpose of publishing the series in the first place, only to kill him at the end. But who knows, non-American books and films tend to have less than happy endings. We'll see.
