Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I'm on record for saying this before, so I can say it now: Ron bites it. He has a fatal flaw that is portrayed in so many ways that there is no doubt in my mind that he will end up dying as either a direct or indirect result of it. I think he will be tempted to the wrong side, but will see the light at the end and die a hero's death. I've also thought that Harry survives and winds up with those 12 kids Trelawney threw at him. He hasn't a family, so it makes sense that he repopulates the wizard community with a new generation of Potters. With Ginny, of course.

I think Hagrid will die early in the book. Malfoy will kill Neville, and Harry will kill Malfoy. Harry wins at the end, else there's no point to the whole business.

Now, if Rowling really wants to kick everybody in the stomach, she kills Hagrid, Ron and Hermione off fairly early on, leaving Harry more alone than ever. Or, Harry has to sacrifice them for the greater good.

I'll be getting my reserved copy at midnight at our local bookseller. (Not that I'll be allowed to read it.) I'll be curious as to the police and ambulance presence in anticipation of the idiot who yells out the ending to the crowd and gets beaten to death.
