zsenya, Age 30, headmistress of the Sugar Quill and archivist in Baltimore, Maryland "I am scared to death that a Weasley will die, and of them all, I'm most scared for Percy Weasley, who has shown signs of splitting from his family in favor of the Ministry of Magic. We'll find out something cool about Ginny Weasleys. I'm convinced she's meant for Harry, but I don't know how much time Harry is going to have for romance in the next few books. He's going to be too busy fighting evil."

heidi8 Tandy, thirtysomething editor, co-founder of FictionAlley.org and an attorney in Miami, Florida "I do think that Draco [Malfoy] will be a prefect, that Ron will pursue Hermione in a romantic fashion (although I think it will never last) and that Peter Pettigrew's insider knowledge of the Weasley household--and both Ron and Percy's personalities--will prove dangerously detrimental to the Weasleys. I think we might learn that Harry's parents were Unspeakables with the Ministry. Hopefully, we'll learn more about why Snape turned from the Death Eaters--many people think it had something to do with love (unrequited or mutual) for Lily [Potter], but me? I'm just not sure. "

melissa_tlc Anelli, managing editor of The Leaky Cauldron and a freelance writer in New York "A very popular theory is that Harry is the heir of Gryffindor, as Voldemort is the heir of Slytherin. I think this is true, as it fits with the idea that Voldemort killed all of Harry's family on his father's side in an attempt to rid the world of Gryffindors. In book one, we see in the Mirror of Erised that Harry has lot of family--yet his only living relatives are the Dursleys, and that speaks volumes. Also, we are told the attack on the Potters took place in Godric's Hollow, and that seems to tie to Godric Gryffindor. Something is going on with his eyes--everyone comments that he has his mother's eyes--and I think that will be hugely important in the future. I also think Ron will make the Quidditch team, as the new Keeper."
