| | |  J.K.Rowling says some will "loathe" Deathly Hallows
The Scotsman has a preview of the J.K.Rowling documentary (A Year in the Life...JK Rowling) due to air on ITV1 later this year. The show documents a year of J.K.Rowling's life during which she finishes Deathly Hallows and the manuscript is whisked off to her agent. The programme is said to have "unprecedented" behind-the-scenes access with the author. Quote:
As an off-camera film-maker offers his congratulations, Rowling, 41, says: "Thank you...yeah, you don't know, it might be rubbish. Some people will loathe it, they will absolutely loathe it. For some people to love it, other people must loathe it. That's just in the nature of the plot."
She adds, "I'm actually really, really happy with it", before bowing her head on the keyboard to exclaim: "Oh my God!"
Quote:
In the documentary, Rowling describes her works as "profoundly moral", adding: "I think it is a lie to pretend that even children of 11 don't have to make moral decisions. I think it's an outrageous black lie."

Exactly, no matter what happens, I won't loath the book, I love these characters, and it will be sad to read the final book, but whatever Jo writes I'm sure it's best and she has her reasons.

I'm sure some people won't like it merely cause it's going to be the last one. I for one have faith in JK's writing, and as long as it's dealt with just as brilliantly as by now, I'm sure I'll love whatever outcome she chose  | |

I will probably if she kills off the trio and if she kills off Harry Potter ...I will most likely loathe it but still like it in a way. I won't like the book series ending but it all has to come to an end soo and this is it.
Harry Potter better not die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is my opinion of the whole thing: When I look back to when I first read OOTP, I despised Umbridge so much and was so angry by what she did to Harry, Dumbledore and Hogwarts that at first, I disliked the book. Then, after rereading it and having some time away from it, I realized that the book was one of the best in the series, as far as how well it was written. Of course, no one wants to see the "good" people dying or being abused, but any book that can make me feel such strong emotion that I am shaking with rage as I read it, is a DARN GOOD BOOK! I expect that Deathly Hallows will probably have a similar effect on many readers. You may not like exactly what happens, the deaths and other abuses, but JKRowling is a consistently excellent writer and I don't doubt that this book will be absolutely amazing.

I don't think I'll hate it. No matter what happens, it's the end.

I feel you will hate it only if you don't see the whole journey. Those who have left us will always be found in our heart!
