I don't know why I hadn't felt a desire to read Harry Potter books, until a few days ago. I was highly mistaken. Although I skipped the first 4 due to movies, the last 2 were a fantastic ride for me. I guess everybody wonders what might happen in the 7th one, which will unfortunately wrap the series for good.
The following can be considered as the most interesting question about the 7th one.
1- Severus Snape - What will he choose at the end? Is he good or evil? What did Dumbeldore mean by the "please" at the end of book 6?
I guess we need to first choose the most powerful wizard in Legimency, Voldermort or Dumbeldore? The most powerful one can be able to see the deepest thoughts of Snape. Even though Snape can be considered to be skilled in Occlumency, I don't think it is near perfect. Harry could be able to tap into Snape's memories with luck or ease. So, keeping the actual thoughts hidden seem to be not very likely. So, a good question comes regarding Snape, can Snape's memories regarding one side can be temporarily modified? We know that Voldermort is a very powerful wizard in modifying people's memories. Can Dumbeldore do the same? Possibly. We also know that Snape's loyalty towards Voldermort was not hidden when he was in Hogwarts. It would be risky to keep that loyalty not-hidden. If Dumbeldore is not good in Legimency, it is possible, but I don't think that is the case. In that case, Dumbeldore should be able to see the real Snape. And, considering Snape's options as a two-sided player, the most logical option is to hide his real feelings regarding Dumbeldore when he is near Voldermort.
Another interesting theory is related to the unbreakable vow that Snape made with Malfoy's mother. That took place before Snape did return to Hogwarts. Dumbeldore was aware of the situation Malfoy was in. And I assume Dumbeldore was also aware of the mission that Malfoy was assigned to. If Dumbeldore was also aware of the vow, then Snape's loyalty should have required a re-evaluation. But, Dumbeldore still insisted on Snape's loyalty. That can only mean Dumbeldore was completely aware of Snape's double-play. If you are not sure about his loyalty, why insist on it?
Now that I read the last part of book 4, I came across Snape's going to Voldemort on Dumbeldore's orders. If Dumbeldore was sure of Snape's loyalty, why send to him to Voldemort who can easily detect where his loyalty lies? Again some memory charm or unbreakable vow come to my mind. What can be the unbreakable vow - e.g., one that is made to Dumbeldore to ask Snape to help the chosen one in his final quest to kill Voldemort - meaning a last second help to Harry to finish Voldemort.
