Oh. And I wouldn't believe everything the Sun says. It's quite possibly the worst "news"paper we have. But you never know ...

i just wanted the share the good news with the few of you i actually like:
weee.... according to JK's official site she's done book 6 and her publisher will be announcing a release date within 24 hours
"Jo Rowling has announced on her site that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is FINISHED, and we should hear a release date from her publishers in the next 24 hours."
"Although I have joked about HP&THBP racing my third baby into the world, I have in fact had all the time I needed to tinker with the manuscript to my satisfaction and I am as happy as I have ever been with the end result. I only hope you feel that it was worth the wait when you finally read it!"
enjoy hp fans
buh bye

OFFICIAL: HBP to be Released on July 16, 2005
It's official! July 16, 2005, will bring the sixth book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
The news comes from Bloomsbury, JKR's British publishers, this morning:
"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince takes up the story of Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at this point as Voldemort's power and followers are increasing day by day, in the midst of this battle of good and evil.
The author has already said that the Half-Blood Prince is neither Harry nor Voldemort. Intriguingly, the opening chapter of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has been brewing in J.K. Rowling's mind for 13 years."
No word yet on book length (MuggleNet is reporting Bloomsbury says it will be "a bit shorter" than OotP), but the hardback editions will have a recommended retail of 16.99 GBP (about $32).

hahaha that'd be cool! where does the pensieve come in, then?
also, the editor for the book had this to say. it's considered spoilers, so i'm going to put it in black text, but i know everyone's going to read it anyway.
<font color="black">There is to be a new Minister for Magic. We learn much more about Voldemort. No information revealed on whether Snape will be the Half-Blood Prince. HBP will be an intense book, but with light-hearted moments. </font>

There are lots of things we know by deduction. Thats what I like.
like Rita Skeeter. She's definately going to have a part in something. And what the deal with Grawp is. That sort of thing is fun to think about. I wonder if the ministry guide will be talked about much...
Damnit! Now I'm all excited about a book thats not coming out until July!!!!
