Which is why I like these books!  There really is no reason for explicit
sexual stuff or getting someone pregnant or any of that kind of thing, IMHO.
The story will have enough to fill it with Harry trying to defeat Volde.

I really appreciate the HP books because they are clean.  The other day I
started reading a book called "The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night"
or something like that, and tossed it asside within the first three chapters
because of the use of the "f" word.  And this was supposed to be a kids'
book?  To me, it was most shocking.

Hope you all had a great Holiday. :-)

Cheers,
