If those copies online are real, which I hope is verified soon, then I have already read it.

They're real. Heaps of people with books compared them and they're exactly the same (expect for a few spelling and grammar mistakes in the one that is online).

So is Teddy Tonks dating the daughter of Ron and Hermione, Voiltare or something? Harry's kid mentions how she's his cousin, which makes sense with the Ginny/Ron thing.

So, just to reiterate, the carpet leak is the real deal?

Weather it was or not, the PDF of it that I just read was pretty good.

So there's definitely some room for more books in the Potter universe. It's just a matter of waiting for a good book deal.

Also, I expected more from the Harry/Voldermort showdown. Seemed waaaaaaaaay too easy, too cheap. And Snape's redemption was about as clear as day.

How is it Harry, the one who's always been a little daft, second only to Ron, was able to deduce all the things about the elder wand before the final battle? And whence came the logic that Draco was the rightful master of the wand?

Yea, just because Draco was SUPPOSED to kill Harry doesn't mean he defeated him and earned the wand. And Harry made it seem too easy, especially since they spent around 6 months just chilling in the woods of England.

I thought the part where Mrs. Weasley fought Bellatrix was....dumb. "YOU BITCH"??

Plus I didn't consider anyone but Voldermort to be a big character. :/

You know, I still have a hard time believing that the leak actually was real. I mean, as I was reading it, I thought it was okay, for a fake, and I knew the real deal would be alot better. Alas.

The odds that the leak would be fake this close to release was just waaay too high. The book came out before street in several different ways and people always open their boxes to read it anyways.

So anyone know the true story behind the differences between the carpet leak and the flickr leak? Just US and UK versions?

There isn't supposed to be much difference besides a little localization for each version.

The name sounded French-ish to me. So I figured it was Bill and Fleur's kid. That would still make her the cousin of Harry's kids.

So why, with Ted being 19 years old was he even AT the Hogwarts express? Let alone making out with Voiltare?

And also, are we right to assume that Harry and Ginny had been raising him? As Harry was his godfather?

That makes sense.

I agree about the ending. It was a nice ending, but not something really suited to the overall tone of the book.

I feel like a n00b, but here's my guess on the ending;
Since Ron, Harry, and Hermoine are supposed to be finding the horcruxes and distroying the little parts of Voldemort, they're going to eventually relieze that the last horcruxe is/is inside of Harry (since Harry got parsoltongue, etc. from Voldemort, and even in the first book, someone said that when Voldemort gave Harry the scar, he [Voldemort] will be inside of Harry until Harry dies). Will they kill Harry? Will they put up with Voldemort to save the hero that we've grown to love and respect (erm...)? That I cannot answer.

Close.

After Voldemort kills Snape, Snape leaves Harry a memory, which Harry sees in the Pensieve, thus revealing that Harry is a horcrux, and Dumbledore knew he needed to die.

Harry faces Voldy, who kills him, however, since Voldy used Harry's blood to recreate his body in Book 4, Voldy is essentially a horcrux for Harry, so he yet again survives Voldemort's killing curse.

I just finished the book about 20 minutes ago. It is so awesome, more then words can describe.
When I reached the end, at first I felt a little disappointed, but then I thought, no, this is all JKR wanted, it's all here. And that feeling faded.
Harry Potter, was, is, and will always be, the greatest thing ever.

In reply to Cheddarbek, #23:

Maybe she's 17 or something and still at Hogwarts. So he came to see her off as well. And I was wondering about whether Ted was raised by Harry. The way he says Ted comes over 4 times a week seems to me to say that he probably wasn't raised by Harry but that Harry was a big part of his life. Tonks, Lupin, and Tonks' dad died, but her mom was alive, wasn't she? Ted could have been raised by his grandmother, like Neville.

Here's one thing that's been bugging me since I read the book. How the hell did the sword get back in the hat at the end there? Annoying goblin guy had it. I doubt he went to Hogwarts and put it back.

my GF's sister confirmed that all the spoilers are true, and i doubt the 648 page pdf in that image is a fake that would be to much work to screw with people

In an emergency, I think the Sorting Hat has the power to retrieve the sword from wherever it may be. We're never explicity told in Chamber of Secrets that the sword was located inside the Hat, only that Harry had pulled it out of the Hat.
