Was anyone else a little surprised at the format of the book 7
title? It doesn't seem to fit with the titles of the rest of the
series. Most of the titles are, "Harry Potter and the Something of
Something." I wonder why she didn't call book 7, "Harry Potter and
the Hallows of Death" or Hallows of whatever else. I think it would
have been just as effective and just as creepy.

Just wondering.

Yes. I was suprised. but then I thought about thisngs like, "Order of the
Phoenix" and that one stumped me... we have Philosopher's Stone/ Sorcerer's
Stone, Chamber of Secrets, Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire, Order of the
Pheonix, Half Blood Prince. So, really, only half of the titles are the X of
X. HOWEVER! They are all "Things" Each one os not a something "of"
something... they are all Proper Nouns.

Where is the Deathly Hallow and/or what is the Deathly Hallow? Maybe "WHO"
is the Deathly Hallow, since we can see that Sirius is/was the "Prisoner of
Azkaban" and there is a "Goblet of Fire" and there are lots of people that
make up the "Order of the Phoenix."

It is a noun. (Yes, I say so, so it must be!!! LOL) Ok, Inmy opinion is is a
noun. :)
