hit me with half the blood, but if you're not a desert prince, i want only bullet points

I expect that the people who would be willing and happy and inclined to SPOILER me have finished reading t'HBP now. But since some of them have expressed nervousness at spoilering everyone else's fun, I am herewith making a special spoiler post.

So, please, I would be really eager to have some plot summaries of HBP! Nothing too detailed, and don't worry about value judgements, critical response or any of that: just give me the bare bones of the plot, in bullet points, even!

My need-to-know basis is:
1) my own HP fic: is it worth continuing or has she killed off Dudley?
2) understanding any HP fanon that may come my way

'cos I'm not going to read HBP. I tried to read OotP (kindly donated by t'Laz) but it kept tumbling from my hands as my eyelids fell irresistibly shut.

Gads, what kind of a fan am I, anyway? An exclusively fanon fan? This may explain why I was more over the moon with lotrips: I actually did drool over Dom and Karl for real. And even over Orlando!

However, someone on LJ said something about Dementors so that might be quite interesting.

My fondness of fanon and my pathological obsession with Dudley Dursley is in strange un-sync with my indifference to canon...

Everybody who wishes not the spoilering of the Half-Bloody Prince: Click not the link!

( HERE BE SPOILERS! WARNING! Or so I hope: hit me with the spoilers already! )

you're so cute

*waves at thamiris who reads every word I write, what a sweetie*

*feels need to pull up socks to make reading matter worthwhile and not just useless dribble*

*is proud that is even wearing socks because of having been stepford flylady lace-up-shoed*

*except when wearing those lovely ballerinas that are the fashion now*

Hope you're having fun, Thamiris! *winks*

P.S. And if you can disable tigs, heh, so can I. *spends three minutes reading Lj instructions*
