i didn’t like the opening. I mean, it’s nice for a change, but it was kind of pointless, especially because we don’t hear of muggles or their prime minister any time later in the book really.

I think a previous book mentioned that Sirius’ brother switched sides and that was why he was killed.

I think Harry will use Sirius’ home, but I am not sure he would live there. I think it must have either the necklace or some other possession in it that will be of interest in book 7.

Sirius fell through the veil, thus no body to bury.

I assume since Harry was a toddler (1 year old) and unable to recall his parents death (until being introduced to the truth and voldemort) it didn’t qualify as witnessing a death.

I think Snape killing Dumbledore had more to do with the promise to Malfoy’s mother. I think JK will try and make him somewhat remorseful, but he has alway hated Harry and I don’t think he would protect him now that Dumbledore is gone.

There are no dementors guarding the prison, they are among the normal population and breeding.

I am curious to know what everyone thought about the beginning of the book. She opened it differently and I found the dialogue with the muggle prime minister fantastic.

I think tis unlikely that tonks and Lupin will form a family with harry, it’s more likely that harry alrady has his surrogate family… namely the weasleys.

Does anyone think that Lupin and Tonks will stay together and become a family to Harry?

Why couldn’t Sirius be in a portrait like his mother, grandfather, dumbledore, etc.?
