Is there anything sadder?


Harry and Dumbledore....from "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." Posted by Picasa

Thanx for choosing the saddest pic ever hon....

Alright this blog will RUIN the ending of book 6 of Harry Potter and the half blood Prince. So if you want to read it and you have not DO NOT READ MY BLOGGER!!!

I wanted to finish Harry Potter so much last night that I went to bed at 4AM!!!

I don’t even really know how to start this blog. That book was incredible. I still think that book 4 and 5 combined are better, I think. But the end of this book was NOTHING I had expected. I don’t know what I expected, but not this. Harry’s relationship with Ginny was perfect and they were so good together and she made him happy. And for once I thought that maybe there would be some sort of Happy Ending for him. I was so naïve to think that though. How could I have been so stupid?!?

One of the reasons why I feel so akin to Harry is bc of the way he grew up. He really had to fend for himself and save himself, until finally he found friends. And my friends have SAVED me so much. When I was in public school, I had NO friends. I was so lonely and I hated school. Not until 4th grade was I able to make a friend. Without my important friendships in life, I would be flouting around this world lost and lonely like Luna Lovegood. But what has saved me and helped me get through life are my friends.

That’s why the ending of this book for me was so DEPRESSING!!! He lost his friend, his protector, his guide through life. After Harry and Dumbledore came out of the cave with the Horcrux and Harry kept reassuring Dumbledore with, “It’s alright, we’re ok. Don’t worry. We are almost home.” And Dumbledore looked at Harry and said, “I’m not worried Harry. I have you with me.” I thought I was going to die on the spot. Harry is always saying that he’s safe and ok bc of Dumbledore, but now Dumbledore is saying that about Harry. I was so touched.

Then in the next scene in the book, things just happened so quickly, I couldn’t read fast enough. Before I knew it Dumbledore was killed by SNAPE and Harry was trying everything to chase him and attack him. But he couldn’t even get one curse past him and then we find out that SNAPE is the ½ blood Prince, I read that over and over. I just was in disbelief. Thinking that at any moment Dumbledore was going to be behind Harry to aid him. And then everything would be ok. I was waiting for Snape to turn around and say “don’t worry, he’s going to be fine.” But it wasn’t, I thought, stupidly, that Dumbledore was just trying to fake his death, so that Snape could go deeper undercover. And any minute Dumbledore was going to sit up and tell Harry that he was going into hiding, but he wasn’t getting up. When Harry went back to Dumbledore’s lifeless body I was even thinking that Harry’s love and trust in him would bring him back. NOTHING WAS WORKING!!! My tears were tremendous. I had just lost something that meant so much to me. I wanted to shut the book and yell NO!!! Still thinking, he’s going to be ok. He’ll get Lupin and McGonagall they know about the plan to fake his death, it’ll be ok. When Harry was in the hospital wing sharing everything, they were in SHOCK!! NO!!! This CANNOT be happening! Bill was bit by a werewolf not during a full moon. Everyone was in shock and then I thought at least Harry has Ginny. At the funeral, I still thought at any moment, he’ll get up. And it still wasn’t happening and when Fawkes had gone as well, I thought I was going to scream. Then Harry turned to Ginny and said that they were over so he could protect her, who does he think he is Spiderman? He NEEDS her. But he loves her so much that he knows that he will have to protect her by not being with her.

I just don’t know what is going to happen in the next book. I just don’t know how this women wrote the words to kill Dumbledore. If she can do that then I don’t put it past her that she would actually be able to kill Harry. Saying it makes me get a lump in my throat. Is Mrs. Weasley really going to let Ron run off with Harry to fight Voldermort? Are Hermione’s parents really going to understand it as well? As much as I loved them not wavering to leave his side, will it happen? Can it happen? Things are so messed up? What’s going to happen to Hogwarts? Harry needs to learn more, he doesn’t know enough yet. He can’t even curse Snape, how will he do it to Voldermort? He needs to be learning and practicing with powerful witches and wizards!! He needs Lupin and McGonagall on his side to teach him. He needs to go to the mountains like Batman and learn to be powerful and strong. I just had a quick talk with Honey and she made a good point about Harry. She said, “It’s amazing that He’s ready now for what’s ahead of him.” And you know what? I think he is ready, in his heart. He just needs more tools. He’s needs Batman Boot camp!!

I think that is the full rant for now. I am sure that when I talk to Honey later I will have plenty of more things to say. Also, it hasn’t really stewed for that long and when it does, it’s gonna be crazy!!! I was going to do what Honey did on her blog and point out the scenes that stood out to me, but I think honey just wrote the whole book in summary form, those are all my favorite parts too.

Now I just have to wait until Nov. 18th till the fourth movie. Until next time…
