Yes, I've been reading the Harry Potter books. I'm ever so slightly embarassed by this, but heck, they're quite readable and entertaining, even if they're a bit on the light side. This one was good, and increased the danger level of Harry's fictional world quite a bit.

It seems like Rowling is trying to drop hints that Harry might die in the last book, but I don't think that's likely. I guess we'll find out in a coupl eyears.
