Well I beg to differ with you on the point of Dumbledore faking his own 
death, Jo even said that she had to kill off Dumbledore because Harry had 
to do this by himself in her interview with Emerson.  I do also feel 
that he definitely won't be alone, anyway, because of Ron and Hermione, but I think 
Dumbledore knew this and he trusts Harry's two best friends to help 
guide him along the way.  

By the end of this book(HBP) I was convinced that there would be more 
than 7 books in the series seeing as how this book left us with so many 
questions.  Is Harry to collect ALL the rest of the horcruxes in 1 
year and visit Godric's Hollow (which I am sure he will want to spend 
some time there)?  Are he and Ginny meant to be (I certainly hope so, 
there was a great feeling of satisfaction as I read that he kisses 
her. I knew it all along! yesss!)?  Was DD's death for nothing since 
that horcrux was a fake?  And will someone please tell me who RAB 
is????? It seems to me like there is a lot more material for more 
than 1 more book, Jo would be doing a great thing to keep on writing 
them, as long as she writes them I will buy them.

Please someone RAB!!!!!!!!!!
