| Here's some stuff that JKR said at the book reading.
"There are two questions I don't think I've ever been asked and that I should have been asked, if you know what I mean," Rowling said.
She told the gathering they should be asking themselves "not 'why did Harry live' but 'why didn't Voldemort die?"'
The second question they should think about is: "Why didn't Dumbledore kill, or try to kill, Voldemort?" she added, referring to the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Also.....
She also tantalisingly answered a question about Aunt Petunia. When asked, JK said no, Petunia is not a squib, as she is muggle-born, but...... and left the sentence hanging.
She said we will find out a bit more about her in the other books and that there's more to Petunia than meets the eye!
She also revealed some more general snippets of information, including:
Aberforth Dumbledore is the barman in the Hog's Head
Dumbledore's patronus is a phoenix
Grawp will be more controllable in the sixth book
We will see a bit more of Rita Skeeter
There will be a new character called McLagan
Harry does NOT have a godmother
There ya have it, more clues. Oh, and by the way, she is half-way through HBP. | |
<----that smiley would really have fitted in at the end of that sentence.
