To Peek or Not to Peek?
Upon delving into the final Harry Potter book will you look to the end of the book to see who dies?
Definitely not, such a thought is blasphemy at best [ 13 ] ** [54.17%]
Of course, I will crumble under the weight of my own curiosity [ 6 ] ** [25.00%]
Maybe a little, after reading a few or more chapters. [ 5 ] ** [20.83%]

The idea for this poll was born while I was reading Bridge to Terabithia which Drie (miss you dear, thanks again for being such a great hostess) warned me was sad and three-quarters of the way in I couldn't stand it any more. Pathetic, yes I know, but no more than I crying at reading what I skipped ahead to read and then crying again on the reread. So very sad. In addition, I did peek ahead in Book 6, only after reading enough to confirm my suspicision of who would "buy the farm" to use an insensitive American slang phrase.

Enjoy, Hershey

I'll read it from midnight, but if the tension gets too much I would peek. I've been reading this series since PS, so I've been waiting a very long time to see how it ends! It's the first day of the summer holidays as well, so plenty of time for re-reads wink.gif
