| | |  Official Blurb on back cover of UK HBP
Bloomsbury have now released the blurb on the back cover of the UK edition of ' Half-Blood Prince.'
It can be seen here.
I'd also like to take this opportunity to warn you that several posts have been made at the Ain't it Cool News website claiming to be spoilers. Things mentioned there include chapter names, deaths, ships, the HBP and character events. We do not know whether those spoilers are real or not. Refrain from visiting that site as a pre-caution.
Thanks to *alohamora* for the tip!

I'm Brazilian and I know that that is a serious enough website and I highly doubt they'd show something that wasn't true. So, be aware and beware... it might just be the real thing.

We've seen the picture before Francis. The information isn't that spoilery, so I don't know why they kept it from us for so long.
IT IS LEGIT. BLOOMSBURY JUST ANNOUNCED IT.

So excited right now!!! It's not too spoilery (if that's a word  ). I recall JKR saying that Harry's stay at the Dursley's will be the shortest yet and he would leave for a happier reason... Can this be related?
I won't read that other site.

Wow! It's awesome! Can't wait no longer!

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

I told you the website was a serious one... the publishers probably set a date in which the back cover could be shown... I like the blurb... now I am getting even more curious about the book... good thing it's closer now.

Ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod!!!!!!!
It's not that spoilery (thanks Lissy ) but ohmygodohmygodohmygod! I'm so excited!!!! Not too long to go - I have all the same questions as Harry, but I'm too excited and it's too close to try and put together a logical theory...
yayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayay!
I'm not that excitable, honest...

OOOH. Sounds interesting. Doesn't contain too much spoiler stuff. Only talks about the beginning really, I suppose that it will happen in the second chapter. Hmmm. Can't wait till Saturday now.

Good!
You know what's really weird? Sounds like how I started my HBP fic. hehe
I thought it had to be legit because the OotP blurb described the beginning of the story too.
Please guys don't post specifics about the blurb in case others here aren't reading it  | |

The blurb sounds quite cool, and it doesn't reveal much, which is great!

I wasn't going to read it, but then I thought, hey when I get the book I'd prolly read the blurb before anything else anyway. Soo yeah. *runs around in circles* eeeep.
EDIT: So....if AICN took the potter spoilers off does that mean it's more likely to be true, and they were forced to take it down by the publishers?
