I am feeling rather smug at the moment as well as incredibly sad. I am going to write a small review under a cut just to get my initial thoughrs out there.

Was it Camilla or you that got the whole thing about RAB and the locket? i was like YESSSSSS!!!!

who else could RAB really have been?

I am just gutted about R & T (actually just R, I always hated the fact that he ended up with her when he should have been having unholy man-love with Sirius) - that was the bit that had me in hysterics. No last words, no goodbye, just a body. Brutal.

i was crying by page 52 over hedwig! and again with dobby. By the time fred died, i was just happy that ron has escaped without being killed off!!

It wasn't so much that she guessed who RAB was, but that she guessed that the throwaway line 'and a locket nobody could open' in OOTP was the horcrux mentioned in HBP.

well yeah! it had to be the horcrux, and Mundungus had to ahve stolen it.

that was the only bit of my theory that was right, the rest was way off...

my mum got all teary over Dobby, I just didn't quite get it. I was fine until Snape, then it all got a bit sad. and when I say a bit I mean more than a bit by a very long way.....

That was Emma - she guessed loads. Such a brilliant book.
