i've finished reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. feeling murderous right now. i hate the ending. even the cruciatus curse doesn't seem to do enough justice to the traitor. i am furious. and i don't understand why rowling had to kill off so many characters. fist sirius. now dumbledore. i would have given anything to keep dumbledore alive. why must she rob everyone of their hope? why? why must she disappoint everyone? why do we all have to bear with the guilt that we had been wrong? i am so upset. i bought the book this morning and finished it at night. i wished i could have gone swimming, if not for the weather. it would have been far more enjoyable swimming than to witness that end. i still cannot get over it. posted by Yee 10:59 PM . . .
