I'm not one to question JKR, but I just can't believe that we will actually
get all the backstory that we need. I mean, think about it - there is so
much that we want to know - even beyond the Harry/LV conflict - think about
all the characters that we want more information on like James/Lily, Serius,
Lupin, Snape, DD, etc. Objects and magical components that we need more
understanding of like the time turner, various charms and spells, and just
exactly what are the rules of the secret keepers. So far, we've gone through
five books and we constantly have more questions and few answers. Will book
six start to turn the tide and begin answering OR will book seven just be a
tell-all?
