Don't know if you've been on jk's site lately but it was in the papers (In Britain) that JK had a massive panic because she lost her notes on the 7th book and she thought it contained big parts of it tht she wouldn't be able to remember and was worried someone might find it, ...
p.s ; she found it and she said it was full of crap and nothing worth putting in the book.

harry potter book relese 7.7.07
That, and it is the biggest stroke of magical marketing luck so far this century. The book simply can't not be released on 07/07/07. It's too perfect.
It just so happens that July 7, 2007 is a Saturday. It just so happens that every Potter book since Goblet of Fire has been released on a Saturday (presumably to allow kids and their parents to attend those midnight release parties without undue hardship). It just so happens that July 7 falls right in the traditional June-July release window during which the other books were released. (Finally, while less relevant but still interesting, 12:00 a.m. on Saturday will be 7 p.m. Friday in the U.S., where the most Potter books have been sold to date. Fans on the east coast, already lined up to buy their copies, will see book 7 released across the pond at 7 p.m. local time - what a coincidence.)
Rowling has hinted at the significance of the number 7opens in new window, most recently in August when her official site's Wizard of the Month was an arithmancer who discovered the number's magical properties. In Half-Blood Prince, it was revealed that Lord Voldemort had made seven horcruxes (himself included). Quidditch teams have seven players each. Gryffindor Tower's entrance is on the seventh floor at Hogwarts. The list goes on and on.
I can see it now: the biggest marketing campaign in the history of publishing, with one very short, very simple, very effective message: Book 7. 07/07/07. Woe betide the marketing departments at Bloomsbury and Scholastic if they don't clinch what's obviously the most perfect storm of circumstance, desire, product and marketing the world may ever know.
Not that the book needs to be released on any specific date, though. As one of the planet's most successful authors, Rowling probably has the luxury of turning in a manuscript no sooner than when she sees fit. Fans will line up when told to. And it's up to her editors and publishers to polish, prepare and print it. One last consideration, from a business standpoint, is to make sure the next movie doesn't interfere or overlap (and Order of the Phoenix is rumored to be due out in summer 2007). Unfortunately, July 7 will also be the two-year anniversary of the London terrorist bombings (thanks to a site member for pointing that out).
No true fan would begrudge Jo for taking her time. But I must wonder if she also feels this coincidental "aligning of the fates" is something special, something magical, something to take advantage of. As a fan, I can only hope she does. As a fan, I hope every day she finishes the book tomorrow and we get it next month.
I also hope Jo doesn't find this whole thing absurdly presumptuous. I hope she realizes it's our duty to poke and prod and ask and beg and whine and plead. How would that be any different than the last five years?
We certainly wouldn't want to disappoint her.
Harry potter & the unloved ...........................well the Harry potter bok titles are usually based on a main character eg hbo or the main part of the plot so hp & the unloved, "unloved" being voldemort ,the book has to end with one of them dyin so it could work but 2 be honest jkr usually has titles that dont give to much away ..
i have a theory that i wanna share
this is a theory that contains gesses to hp book 7
snape is good and otha things
In book 2 the chamber of secrets when harry was down in the chamber he said something of such loyalty to dumbledore (dd) tha fawks the phenoix showed up to help him
so fawkes shows up wen loyalty is served to dd
then in book 5 the order of the pheniox fawkes shows up to save dd from that avada kedavra curse so this also mean that he shows up when dd needs him.
so y didint fawkes show up wen dd needed him most when the avada kedavra was being shot rite at him by snape
my theory is tat dd ordered fawkes not to act and tat he had t stand down and not help him or harry.
thats my theory and send me feedback bout wat u think bout it...
