The Great Harry Potter Re-read: Book 7 - The Deathly Hallows - Edit 1

Before modification by Rebekah at 24/11/2010 08:18:17 PM

Hi everyone,

We're here at last: the final book in JK Rowling's incredibly successful series. Harry, Hermione and Ron have grown and changed so much over the previous six books, and it's been fun to discuss all of the action over the series. And as the first film of this book has just been released, we can probably work in discussion of that as well!

We'll read three chapters on each Monday, Wednesday and Friday. And I'll follow Paul's example from the previous discussion and refrain from working out a full schedule, though, so as to give us the option of pausing, slowing down or accelerating whenever that should prove desirable. We have noticed before that Rowling often seems to write in groups of three chapters and that our schedule often works out amazingly well, but if at some point a different division works better, there's no reason not to go along with that.

This thread won't be Announced because we always have so many threads that need Announcing and it gets cluttered, but as noted previously, you can change your message board settings so you see the threads with recent replies first. Or you can just do what I usually do and use "My Threads" to keep track of this thread (those with a premium account can also mark the thread as a "Favourite Thread" ).

Rules are the same as always:

  • Please keep spoilers out of posts title if at all possible, and warn if a post contains spoilers for later books (i.e. book seven).
  • Try to post in the right place so the thread remains easy to handle even when there are hundreds of posts. Do feel free to start a sub-thread of your own when the topic you want to discuss doesn't really fit into any of the provided sub-threads, though.
  • Suggestions are welcome in the suggestions sub-thread.


And for your convenience, here are the links to the previous discussions:

Book One: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

Book Two: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Book Three: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Book Four: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
