Personally, I don't think Ginny will die. She is such a major part of
Harry's life that I don't think Rowling would kill her off. But then
again, I always found her character to be stubborn and annoying. I
can't
wait fo book 7 to come out!


Major part? As I recall, they've exchanged all of 10 sentences in the
books, if that. She's been tacked on as surely as Eeyore's tail.


You must be reading different books from me.
At first years, probably they didn't have a relationship except Ron's
friend/Ron's little sister. A simple "hi, Ginny", "bye, Ginny". Mostly
because Ginny was terrified about talking to him and Harry not seeing
her as someone too important (despited the fact that he was probably
fond of her as being his mate's little sister). Eventually, Ginny became
most secure about herself and she didn't mind to talk to a Harry who saw
her like a sister too while they lived together at the Burrow and
Grimmauld Place. Remember that Ginny was who helped Harry in OotP (but I
don't remember how!!!: the chocolate episode!)

Then they started dating. They talked: even Harry indicated the spent at
least one memorable evening at the lake. And I am sure he didn't only
mean the snogging.

Yes, but how much dialogue was in the books? I don't have the books here
in front of me, and I haven't read them since each individual release,
but I don't recall much dialogue between the two (or words spoken by
Ginny in general). You allude to a similar experience with the help
given by Ginny in OotP: we remember she was there, but we don't remember
what she did (or said). If that's not indicative of a character being
tacked on, I don't know what is.

NOt according to the author, but what does she know, compared with someone
who has read the books ONCE?

So your experience is different than mine? Or are you just going to take
Jo's word for it and ignore the fact that NOTHING Ginny does, other than
kiss Harry, stands out too terribly? Maybe book 7 will be different, but
thus far, I see what I see.
