I probably wouldn't actually *read* the final chapters right away, but I 
would probably peek at the last few pages just to see who was there.  I 
actually did that with GoF.  There seemed to be a lot of fan sites that 
thought that George Weasley would be the one to die, so I was relieved when I 
glanced at the last page of GoF and saw George speaking.  I was even more 
relieved when I saw that Fred was there as well, as were Ron and Hermione.  I 
sometimes read the last page of a book before I start reading the book, but I 
don't know if I would do that with HP.  Although I would like to be prepared 
for who dies, I don't know if I would be able to handle it if I knew right 
away, especially if it was a character I really liked.  Unfortunately, I've 
become very attached to quite a few characters, and while I really wish they 
would all survive, I know that they won't.  So I'd better have a box of 
tissues with me when I'm reading the next 3 books...
