Looks like SydPad will be getting one of her Christmas wishes ...

Title of Seventh Harry Potter Book Released

If you want to go through the hoops on JKR's site to find out what it is, don't click on that link.



My reaction to the title announcement was to be vaguely reminded of something I'd heard or maybe seen, I don't remember, in which someone set the spooky mood my waggling his fingers around (or ... implying it, if it was on radio, which it probably was) and saying "ooooh, spooooooky." If anyone has any idea what I'm talking about ... I'll be surprised.

I... feel oddly depressed. Is this really the end? *goes off for a pre-emptive sob*

[lizetm.livejournal.com]

So excited!!!!!!!!! Don't know what it means, the title that is, but I'm still excited!!!

We just need that release date, and that would be the perfect christmas present! :D

I think the article on the CBC site said it was due to be released next summer.

[lizetm.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that is the rumor, but I think we all want the EXACT date, you know, so we can make room for that day! XD

And I must be dull and/or skeptical cause... that title seems as bad as the other rumoured ones. Like she pulled two words out of a hat and threw them together. Still, it'll make more sense when the book comes out. (But it even feels odd to say, like the words don't sit right together!)

That's how I felt when the HBP title was released...but it grew on me.

Thank you for keeping it under a link :P I just had to torture myself and spend a million years trying to get the door open on her website.

At first I thought it was a joke. The title sounds pretty cheesy to me. She couldn't have come up with anything ... better? Ah well. Maybe it'll grow on me.

I love the art! (and all your stuff, most excellent)

It is a weirdly creepy title.

[pyri-prongs.livejournal.com]

Ah twirlynoodle!Harry, how I love your waggly spooky fingers ^_^

The BBC informed me of the title before I saw it on the internet O.o I've so fallen behind with the internet since leaving uni!

I think it sounds like an emo band's next album name. O.O

We've got researchers on the meanings of both words right now, so head on over to the Leaky Cauldron or the Harry Potter Lexicon if you want to learn everything you never knew about death, hallows (why is it that, while the rest of the world seems to be "verbing" nouns, Jo is "nouning" verbs???), and deathly hallows *squeeeeee*.

That sounds like some sort of horrid gastrointestinal disorder....
xD love the "SpOOOooooOOOoky"

ur...I'm really glad I stopped reading HP now.

[azvolrien.livejournal.com]

I still think it sounds like a band.

That drawing summed up my feelings exactly and made my day.

I've done the "ooooh spooky" thing with fingers myself. I'm not sure how the finger gesture becomes associated with spooky - maybe it has to do with imitating a witch's claws or ghost's fingers waving at someone?

I must de-lurk to say...RAAAH, you can draw hands and I am jealous. I cant draw hands *woe*

[jay-snaps.livejournal.com]

Hah! that harry is great. Exactly what i thought when i first saw the book name, though it grew on me.
