Alla:

I do not know how about anybody else, but to me it looks like sort of 
the repeat of GoF confrontation. I am betting on something similar 
with the twist, but in essense the same. Meaning that Harry would be 
in grave danger, but will manage with the help of those who died and 
who loved him.

Alla:

The fact that locket is on British adult cover gives me hope that it 
would be quite important,yes ;)

Oh, maybe Regulus will show up after all, hehe. I can dream, can I?


But my most excitement is of course that there is no Snape anywhere 
on the covers. Yes, yes, I know greasy git is important and will be 
on more pages than I would like to. But I can dream, can I that he 
will show up on few last pages and either reveal himself as loyal or 
evil plot device and that would be it?


Alla, who loves loves British children cover.
