Title of Harry Potter #6 revealed.
J.K. Rowling has posted a cleverly worded announcement confirming that the title of her next book is indeed what was discovered by fans behind the animated door on her website. Although she deliberately omits actual mention of the title, acknowledgement from her literary agent has made it widely known: "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" is the next book to expect.
For fans who have problems uncovering the hidden revelation of the title, here's a step-by-step guide:
1. Click that highlighted item beside the key.
2. Click on the handle to open the door.
3. Click the bricks in the following numbered order.
4. Click on the fan.
5. The papers should flutter, leading you to see this:
Rowling also hints at what's ahead,
I was delighted to see that a hard core of super-bright fans knew that the real title was once, in the long distant past, a possibility for 'Chamber of Secrets', and from that deduced that it was genuine. Certain crucial pieces of information in book six were originally planned for 'Chamber of Secrets', but very early on (first draft of Chamber) I realised that this information's proper home was book six. I have said before now that 'Chamber' holds some very important clues to the ultimate end of the series. Not as many as six, obviously, but there is a link.
Anyway: if you continue to exercise patience, you will find that the Do Not Disturb Door opens again... and again... giving you further hints about book six. But as a little bonus, and compensation for having been messed around by Mr. or Ms. Storgé, I shall tell you one thing without making you shift any bricks at all: the HBP is neither Harry nor Voldemort. And that's all I'm saying on THAT subject until the book's published.

hermione is a mudblood, not a half blood... both her parents are muggles... besides i think prince means male.. unless hermione is a cross dresser!!! a very pretty cross dresser...
i am not sure if there are other half bloods beside harry and voldermort...
let's see
ron weasley + other weasleys
pure blood
neville longbottom
pure blood
dean thomas
i am not sure i think he is a mud blood too... anyway minor character
draco malfoy
pure blood... unless he's adopted...
hagrid?
maybe... he's a half blood too.
dumbledore?
could be, i don't remember reading about his parentage though
the rest of the order of the phoenix i.e lupin, moody, and that black auror guy can't remember his name...
don't seem to be likely
unless...
it's snape... maybe that's why he switched sides and worked for the order... and maybe that's why his parents were always quarelling
or could be the bulgarian quidditch star who liked hermione...
btw... i think Ron and hermione will end up together.. what do you think?

Yes, I also think there's a future for a Ron and Hermione pairing - provided they both survive the series. =P
I'm looking forward to the sixth book because of the supposed connections it will make to events that occurred the Chamber of Secrets.
Imho, Rowling's best talent is how her revelations are so well planned. It will definitely be interesting to see what hints were hidden and how everything will connect.
As for the half blood prince, hmmmmm...

rowling is a master of the narrative. that's why i think that people who watch the movie but never read the book is missing out.
