Hi guys,

Thank God we in Brazil were able to get the book at the same time 
everyone in the world! Well, after 2 re-re-readings of the book 
(British Edition), I come back to give my opinion (after the BIP):

1) This book is the most pessimist, scarier and "teenage-like" of the 
five already published;
2) I liked GoF and PoA plot most, but the quality e complexity of OoP 
history is higher by far;
3) In my opinion, people who believes that Petunia know much more 
about WW are right, and I loved when I read an opinion that maybe she 
had some affair with one of Lily's friends (Sirius/Snape?)!
4) Who was concerned about no-evil-female-characters must be real 
excited with Dolores Umbridge and Bellatrix Lestrange (Voldemort's 
female pupil...?)
5) I agree that the Chapter 35 - Beyond the Veil is too 
much "Hollywood style". The combat description is excessively 
detailed and I didn't like it at all.
6) When JK was asked if Sirius would be cleared anytime, in one 
interview (I don't remember which one) and she said something 
like: "I'll not tell or it would ruin future plots", I knew that he 
probably would be killed - I just didn't think it was on book 5, nor 
by a Dath Eater (my bet was by an Auror). 
7) Know that Hagrid brought a Grawp with him, and Harry & Company are 
growing up fast, his "adult-but-same-like-us" role is almost empty. 
They don't need his support - they only feel responsible for protect 
him, instead. I'm sure he's one of the next ones to die.
8) I'm positive sure that Luna's character was created in order to 
develop some important plot. In my opinion, some part of her role was 
cut by GoF because that "Plot Error" everybody knows, and she was the 
character chose to do it from OoP to the end. Some of "The Weasley 
Cousin" role mentioned before is obviously in her. The problem is 
that we have a sensation that we were fooled not being introduced to 
her in any way before (I don't buy that JK drop "The Lovegoods" 
mention in GoF with to second intentions. Probably she dropped lots 
of  signs on the books that she is not going to use anytime!). I 
believed that Luna's role is going to be more and more important, for 
good or evil, but I didn't like her far-fetched introduction.
9) I loved the early explanation about family relations in 
the "Pureblood Wizard World". It explain a lot some things in the 
past, as well as Snape's Worst Memories. It's important to show 
everybody that nobody has a pure black or white character. The 
Marauders, specially James, did their mistakes when teenage.
10)  A question: Where are Lilly's friends at school? Was Bellatrix 
or Umbridge one of them?


I'm developing a theory about why Dumbledore feels so guilty about 
not telling Harry the prophecy before. He shows a lot of sorrow, but 
not buy Sirius death. The truth is much more terrible and deep that 
we can suppose...but that will be another post.
