| | Harry Potter is "a hard act to follow" In a recent survery conducted by Waterstone's book chain, nearly one fifth of Harry Potter fans admitted that they will skip to the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows before reading the first 608 pages. In fact, that makes seventeen percent in the 500-children poll.
However, a third of them admitted that they will be willing to say up all night to finish it - chances are, girls will read it faster than boys in as little as 30 hours. Nine out of ten children believed that it will be more difficult and upsetting to say goodbye to Harry than Tony Blair, the Prime Minister.
Wayne Winstone, the Waterstone's spokesman, was quoted saying: Quote:
"There's no doubt that Harry will be missed, he's a hard act to follow."

No doubt about it, Harry Potter is already a part of human history. Everyone alive now will be telling their grandchildren how they found out what happened to Harry after they skipped to the end of Deathly Hallows.

I am never ever going to just skip off to the last chapter. I mean, think about it please, how are you going to know what happens to everybody? This last book is going to contain all the answers to the questions we had since like...forever! We can't just spoil that too easily.
