Harry Potter book covers revealed



metro

I love that cover, I can't wait for the book. Do you know how many pages it has yet?

759 pages.

Think from the ending there is scope for more later though with a totally different set of students.


What is the difference ,other than the cover ,between the standard edition and the adult editions ?

I got my book at midnight and had finished it by 6... I couldn't put it down! It was WONDERFUL..

so who dies then Milly?

I'm hoping that WHSmith is open tomorrow and have the Hardback versions left the supermarkets tried today only have the paperback one left.

I think giving that answer would spoil it for others still reading the book. And I can't give you any clues as it'll indicate to much to who may or may not die. But chapter 36 is the one that'll answer the question. The Epilogue is what makes me think it has been left open for possibly another series sometime in the future.

I really don't want to spoil it for those who are still reading.

My post was a joke Larry.

You will have to read it to find out!!! I did cry at the end though

I got it today but couldnt start it till 4 after i finished work i finished it by 7 though. I really enjoyed it though i nearly cried at some of the bits too

I know who dies anyway. My daughter has the book and I flicked to the back chapters and had a scan of them.

I bought a copy this morning from Woolworths.
And I also have an ebook version.

The scanned copies that are in the newsgroups which appear to be a hardback copy have different number of total pages. The Adult hardback version I bought this morning has 609 pages. I suppose the children's version is illustrated which would increase the number of pages.

That is just cheating!!

Oh and Larry the children's book is not illustrated

i read the epilogue first

Curiosity got the better of me

Well I was strong and waited

My husband did read the last sentence though and I told him off.
