Book Discussion

1st of all did you enjoy it? I am curious regarding the possible symbolism of the Phoenix. Does anyone else find it interesting that Dumbledore was burned? Is it possible is anything more than wizard?

I do think that it was strange Dumbledore was burned, but we know it can't have been a normal funeral since everyone gasped.

I really also enjoyed the book, but I almost cried too, how could Snape be bad!?

Ok so i know Dumbledore pleads Snape, but does anyone else think that this is because he wanted Snape to kill him?

I was thinking that if Dumby knew about the unbreakable vow (Snape would die if he did not help Draco) then maybe Dumby thought Snape was worth keeping alive?

well this may be the case but dumby would have said something to someone cuz now everyone is against snape and he is gonna die cuz of this someone will kill him for revenge and most likely it will be harry dumby would die to protect someone but he would say somethig so that peron doesnt become enemy of everyone who liked dumby which is alot of ppl

well dumby would die to save someone but he would tell someone cuz otherwise he will become the most hunted person besides voldy every one that dumby ever help was friend with or touched in some way will now hate snape for wat he has done and he is gonna die for it most likely by harry dumby wouldnt want him to die for something like that he would say something to someone so snape wouldnt be as bad off

I really think that Snape may have made a Unbreakable vow with Dumbledore before all of this happened. Possibly when Snape came to be a Hogwarts to be a teacher. Dumbledore had such confidence in Snape in such a way that I think that is why.

ok im done arguing about this but we will all know in the next book wont we? it dont matter wat any of us think it matters wat jk writes

is it so weird to be cremated? now, in modern times it is, but, people get cremated all the time, right? i think it had a symbolism, that like, the smoke or something went up to Heaven. at my church camp, we wrote letters to god and burned them, so that the fumes floated up to Heaven. it could be something like that. anyone else think that????

I cried too when Dumbledore died. But I think he was up to something with Snape. I dunno, maybe Snape was acting under Dumbledore orders after all, when he killed him. Remember they had an argument that Hagrid overheard? That could be a clue...

I certainly don't believe he was asking Snape to kill him... it's hard to believe Dumbledore would make a mistake, but he surely did make them, and trusting Snape was a mistake... probably the biggest one he ever made...
