    Luckily some people who work at Borders were quitting, and got to spoil book 7 for all the people (like me) who wouldn't be reading it after the horror that was HBP. But good news, friends:
    GINNY DIES

    While I believe that they are holding the real books, they are lying. JKR has said that Dumbledore is dead. I'd pull up the exact link but I'm too tired- just look for it on her website. I hope Ginny does die, though.

    They never said Dumbledore comes back, just that he advised Harry through portraits. At least that's what i heard.

    Hopefully you had approval to post this spoiler. If their even telling the truth.

    They said "Dumbledore comes back"- I went back and checked. JKR said that he stays dead. I didn't hear anything about portraits, but I wasn't listening very carefully after I realized it's a fake.

    It sounded like he was being sarcastic. I like how they had the spoiler disclaimer at the end. God, I hope Neville dies.

    Uh...you do know that the epilogue is already posted in quite a few places, a sort of confirmed epilogue with art by the usual guy?

    and that ginny, indeed, does *not* die?

    The whole book's been pirated already and I do mean the genuine article and not the fanfic one going around. PM me if you want a link. It's hard to read because of how it was ripped but it's definitely real.

    Yeah, there a cell phone camera copy of the book floating around but it's just impossible to read in parts.

    I could post a pic if you want.

    Read the genuine article--half the stuff they say isn't true.

    Decent video. Book looks quite real, but then, so did the other scans, and they tell a completely different story.

    I'm more inclined to believe this over them, though, since it sounds better. None of the trio dying works in with what she said in an interview. Two characters gone who are important. Or kinda important. Whatever.

    Dumbledore is still dead. It did mention pictures or portraits. Though the dude was mumbling or talking too fast. Hard to hear, I guess?

    Snape being good... half the fans believed that, anyway.

    Black Family Vault surprised me and sounds... too fanfiction-ish, so thats 1 strike against it. Was that locket in OotP really nothing? Maybe people looked into that too much.

    Harry lives. Check.

    Love defeats Voldemort... Urgh. Check. I'm happy that Ginny dies, if this is real, but... Urgh. Whatever.

    We shall see in three days, eh?

    Oh, and they didn't do such a great job at blurring themselves. If this is real and they have, infact, leaked Deathly Hallows, this will probably come to the attention of JKR and publishers. Even with their faces blurred, I bet co-works could pick these two dudes out, no sweat.

    Surely, there is some legal issues here. :)

    Wow...you would think if someone who actually has the book would actually read it.

    From reading the leaked copy (Pictures, not the fanfiction one.), the locket IS important and Harry has a rather funny scene with Mundungus and Kreacher while trying to get it.

    I'm around page 200 or so, so I'll see where it goes from here.

    Hmm, not sure if I should believe it or not. In order for them to have that information they would have had to read the book right? When would have have had time to read over 700 pages while working? I doubt skimming through it would have gotten them that much info, unless it is all in the epilogue.

    From a torrent blog I visit, someone posted this for the spoilers.

    By. Mr. Deeds

    All of those spoilers are wrong. I went through the effort of finding all the spoilers to ruin some people’s day.

    Harry doesn’t die
    Snape dies on page 658, his last words are “Look…at…me…”
    Dobby dies on page 476, his last words are “Harry…Potter…”
    Moody dies sometime before page 78, you hear of his death from Bill and Fleur
    Collin Creevy dies sometime before page 694, Harry finds Neville is carrying his dead body
    The sorting hat dies on page 732, Voldemort lights it on fire
    Fred dies
    Tonks dies
    Lupin dies
    Neville kills Nagini
    Snape was Dumbledore’s spy all along. Dumbledore plotted his own death so that the power of the Elder Wand would die with him rather than be transferred to his victor. He failed though and the power is transferred to Draco, then to Harry (of course).
    Voldemort dies on page 744
    Harry’s scar goes away
    Harry Marries Ginny and has three kids named Lily, Albus Sirius, and James
    Ron Marries Hermione and has two kids, Hugo and Rose
    Neville becomes professor of Herbology
    Malfoy gets married and has a son named Scorpius

    He clearly read the same photocopied version we did and I still say it's fake. :)
