HARRY POTTER FEVER/

I just spent 2 days devouring the book "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" After that, I spent another 4 days scouring the net for a clue on what's going to happen next. I have read J.K. Rowling interviews, read threads on forums, and I've even read fan fiction just to feed my Harry Potter craving.

I've never done that before. I've always liked the series but I wasn't the kind of person who would reserve the newest book. I never even bought my own copy! I think it's safe to say that I've finally caught the Harry Potter fever. It's so funny that it should happen with just one book left.

Why the sudden addiction?

That's the funniest part. It's because of Ron and Hermione. Who cares if Dumbledore died? Does it really matter which side Snape is on? So what if Hogwarts closes?!

Ron and Hermione love each and that's all that matters! It is so deliciously silly, but I will take solace in the fact that there are others out there who are even sillier than me.

It seems that a huge part of the fan base are rooting for Harry and Hermione to get together. They call themselves the H/Hr Shippers as opposed to the R/H Shippers.
This is such a huge feud that I stumbled across a forum with 7,000 threads debating on who will get coupled in the end. It is such a big deal that J.K. Rowling herself had to go on record saying that all those who think that Harry and Hermione will end up together need to read the books again. She said that she made it very clear who ends up with who in book 6.

Well, I just wanted to show my support for Ron and Hermione. These pictures really put the sap in my sappy sack of a heart :)
