Good point, Barb. I suggested 1,597 pages because of the rate at 
which the books appear to be expanding. I hope JKR realizes that we 
the fans don't expect every book to be substantially longer than the 
previous book. Neither book 7 nor book 6 needs to be the size of the 
Oxford Unabridged Dictionary.
