| | Rumour: 750 pages in book 7 so far The Daily Mirror and The Times note that J.K.Rowling recently attended a tea party to celebrate the premiere of ' Driving Lessons'.
She reportedly told a journalist at the event that book 7 was "up to about 750 pages" at the moment. This would make it just shorter than ' Order of the Phoenix' (the longest Potter book so far), which has 766 pages in the British edition. Quote:
“I’m up to about 750 pages now, but I’m not telling anyone what happens to Harry,” she says. “I’ve just come along to support Rupert who’s absolutely terrific in Driving Lessons.”

Yay, that's awesome. But does it say that she finished writing, else it could beat OotP. It'll probably be a rumour anyway. Interesting, though.
I was just watching Jonathan Ross and it had a clip of Driving Lessons with Rupert.

That's awesome! The longer the better, so I hope it's true! And it's cool that she went out to support Rupert.

I would be happy if she added more pages. I love reading her work, and I think a big, fat juicy novel full of answers is what we deserve for reading her work this long. I loved OotP, hopefully this one is just as good!

That's awesome. I hope she isn't done so that the seventh book can be the last and the longest. That'd be cool, I think. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Cassie Alexandersson | Ohh yeah! But I hope it's a bit better than OotP, I thought that was quite dissappointing book. But I'm a romantic sap, so that's probably why. I mostly read romance books . |
