Yeah, well, Old Yeller was just a book, but... but... *sniff*... nevermind.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

The only time I got teary eyed over a book was in Speaker for the dead when it says that they didn't even plant a tree in them... *sniff*

My older son had this to say:
Spoiler
It looks like everything Ron saw in the Mirror of Erised is starting to come true for him!
He also said that Rawlings had such a large cast of characters she more or less had to drop some of them, whether through death or having them go overseas, or whatever. And as for the death:
Spoiler
First I though it was going to be Mr. Weasley, then I thought it was going to be Professor McGonnegal, then I thought it was going to be Hermione, then when it happened, I was shocked, as I didn't see that coming at all!
Love as thou wilt.
