Book 7?

[ebonlock]

My sis just sent me this and I'm not sure what to make of it:


Scholastic's placeholder jacket.

On Thursday morning J.K. Rowling announced to the world, via an elaborate game on her Web site, the title for her seventh and final Harry Potter book. It will be called Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. She also updated fans about her progress on the book, saying she is hard at work writing scenes that she has had planned for a dozen years or more. "I am alternately elated and overwrought," she writes. "I both want, and don't want, to finish this book (don't worry, I will)."

Seems a reasonable enough title, but I haven't personally visited Rowling's site so I can't confirm that it came from there. Will try and check into this further today...

I posted to mischief_mgmt earlier this morning about it: yes, it's officially from her website, and been re-posted onto Scholastic's official website as well.

Apparentyl it's up her her site too, and it's legit.

Seems decent enough to me. Like all of them, it won't make sense until we read the book. *shrug*

As long as it wasn't "Harry Potter and the Death of Severus Snape", I'm happy.

Well, I gather at least one character will have an honorable death....
