Kellie now:
I agree with J. K. shocking us in book 6.  I admit that I didn't 
expect Dumbledore to die until book 7, but I was upset when it 
happened, but I totally didn't expect it to happen as it did.

When Snape made that unbreakable vow, I thought, there has to be 
a way out of it.  It is way too obvious that he would end up being 
the one to kill Dumbledore.  In the past, the most obvious person 
was always the wrong one. I couldn't believe the scene on the tower.

I have to say, though, I was proud of myself for guessing who the 
half blood prince was, before we found out.  I don't know why it 
came to me.  But, I remember, going to sleep and right before I 
dozed off, it popped into my head.  Snape I bet is the half blood 
prince, and it turned out to be so.
