now me Eowynn:
No I did not peek but I had narrowed it down and as I read the book the clues jumped out at me and I new who it would be that died. As for JKR changing anything, I don't think she would do that. While we as adults can get really intellectual with the books, she did write these for children. I don't believe she will change any of her story due to the younger fans, but also because while we may get deep and almost hit the mark, we never really do. I believe that because we can't quite figure it out she will keep it the same and watch the reactions when those that were oh so close, find out how close they really were.
Eowynn ( very tempted to peek, but will try and continue to restrain herself.)
