I'm not clicking on any of these links until I've read the book just in case it's something that I don't want to hear, yet. I think that our library system keeps them in locked vaults until they're released. I heard that it's only about 492 pages, though.

Hey. Sorry to double post, but this is crazy! This stuffis everywhere! I just had to run to the padio and turn it off while plugging my ears because they were talking about it and I didn't want to risk hearing anything. Waht is happening to the world?!

These links don't say anything about what actually happens in the book Godric, all they say is that some people are leaking information, its perfectly safe. And they are probably talking about the same thing on the radio, I doubt a radio-host is going to leak information out on the radio, its too risky for them to do that.
What you do have to be wary of is online sites, but your tv and radio shouldn't be a problem, they'll probably tell you what sites not to go to. :grin:

This is the only Harry Potter related site I'm going to until I've read the book. I'm not googling Harry Potter or anything like that. I'm reading articles on Yahoo about it, but that's it.

TV and radio are definitely safe until the book's released. But after tomorrow, I'm not going to watch the news or listen to the radio until I've read the book.

We're talking about Harry Potter on other forums I'm on, too, but luckily, everyone's very careful to label spoiler threads.

I'll sit Shiva. :D No T.V., no radio, and, I suppose, no computor. But I suppose that I won't sit on a wooden stool or cover up the mirrors with black cloth. though I might wear all black, though.

I wouldn't go on the internet, but I'm not going to hide away from tv or radio, I'd be so bored! I'm going to have read the book within a couple of days, and in those days im reading it if i ever have time to watch tv or radio I'll watch/listen. I doubt the Deathly Hallows plot is going to be all over them, people do have lives other that Harry Potter you know. The internet though is definately a no-no.

it's true - she's mentioned it on her website but let's hope they've got it wrong. RunAway - I hope they got it wrong for your enjoyments sake.

My friend told me, too, Run Away. Yesterday. But I kind of had a feeling about what she said, anyway.

Well I have no idea about plots, I've been avoiding and like Simatra, I'm heading off BoA now until I've finished reading it

Enjoy everyone!

Well looking back at the leaks after reading the book, unfortunatley many of them were true, or at least had 'essence of truth'. Some people disgust me!! But luckily the person that my sister blurted out died didn't actually die.. so yay for me!!! Still, sad at the people that did die, obviously can't mention their names here.

I've moved this thread to the Deathly Hallows Book discussion now, in case anyone wishes to discuss further the validity (or not) of the supposed leaks.
