He is so lovely. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 03/08/2010 06:00:26 PM
I lovelovelove Lupin. Ahem. Oh, clear and rational analysis and discussion, you say? Right.

:D

First Scabbers. Not so much an observation as a question, really. If Pettigrew lives as a rat, in the body of a rat, and he never returns to human form, should he not age as a rat, and be very weak and die soon?

Dunno. How long do rats live? Couldn't magical ratty pets be longlived?

The Twins: I love how Fred and George tried to shut Percy in a pyramid. And their mocking parody of him greeting Harry had me giggling out loud. But then they are perfectly subtle and tactful about cheering Harry up about the dementors and Malfoy at the feast. They become many-faceted, not just clowns or funny happy guys. They are actually able to deal sensibly with a younger kid being bullied. I am impressed.

The twins are really well written characters. I believe everything about them. That's one of Rowling's talents, I think, creating multi-faceted personalities to inhabit her books.

I like Mr and Mrs Weasley's discussion on whether to tell Harry. It is nice to see they love him. And how Mr Weasley would be willing to go back on his word to Fudge because he feels Harry needs to know what is going on. Of course, this reflects on Fudge again, feeling it is better to just keep everyone in the dark.

So lovely. Fudge is the perfect government man. It's kind of reassuring that even the Magical World has such useless leaders. :P

And Crookshanks is perfectly lovely. I don't see what Ron is on about. It sounds like the world's best cat. Although it isn't a cat, is it. It's a something else, the name of which escapes me.

Cats drool.

But Crookshanks is funny. Reminds me of Greebo.

But LupinLupinLupin! Ah, one of my major literary crushes. And it is not just the fact that he offers free chocolate (always a plus). He is asleep, then, as soon as the dementors are there he protects the kids and then he offers them chocolate. Lovely. Perfect. He makes everything feel safe and good.

I bet he's pretty huggable as well.

Malfoy is his usual self. Clearly mocking Harry's reaction to the dementors to cover up his own fear of them. And then getting suitably punished for his disrespect by Buckbeak.

~nods~ Slimy little twerp. I do feel sorry for him, though. What with his father and all.

Sir Cadogan is a little annoying. Or quite annoying. But he never reaches anywhere near the levels of annoyance reached in the last book.

~nods~

Trelawny. Is lovely in an annoying sort of way. I fully intend to start walking up to random strangers and say "You know that thing you are dreading? It will happen on [random date]". It is genius. And I really like how some of her "predictions" turn out to be real, but not in the way she interprets them. For example, the ``around Easter, one of our number will leave us forever''. And she does seem to have a good ability to read human nature, as when she identifies Neville as the one most likely to break a cup if prodded in the right way. She is a problematic character, though. Very morally grey in the way she abuses the credibility of students by making them think one of them is going to die, for example. And I wonder whether she got the twins mixed up when she told Parvati to beware of red-haired men, as her sister is the one who has a miserable time with Ron at the Yule Ball.

Trelawny is great. I like that Rowling remembers to have useless established teachers as well as the replacements the kids have suffered over the past two years. Makes Quirrell and Lockhart seem much less anomalous.

And Emma Thompson was the perfect pick for Trelawney.

Also: I've often wondered whether the teenage girl readers are supposed to think that the thing Lavender is dreading is her period. Might make young girls feel a bit better about the fact they're worried about it. I like to think of Rowling as being caring like that.

McGonnagall, as usual, the voice of clear-cutting no-nonsense reason, knowing the perfect way to dispell Trelawny's mumbo-jumbo.

I had a teacher like McGonagall. She was wonderful. Strict but fair.

How good a book is this - compared to the rest of the series, and compared to YA books in general? *NM* Legolas - 28/07/2010 01:19:06 PM 930 Views
I'd say it is one of the best in the series Camilla - 02/08/2010 10:23:49 AM 1542 Views
Absolutely. Seriana Sedai - 05/08/2010 08:15:20 PM 1712 Views
More of a question, really Camilla - 01/08/2010 10:40:23 PM 1611 Views
I think this is situational and a sad commentary on his home life. StormCrow - 02/08/2010 03:01:49 PM 1451 Views
Well, but the question still remains Camilla - 02/08/2010 03:04:01 PM 1561 Views

I had totally forgotten about that choir and the Ray Bradbury reference. Legolas - 05/08/2010 12:37:09 AM 1530 Views
Okay, so possibly a Shakespeare reference also used by Bradbury. Whatever. *NM* Legolas - 05/08/2010 12:37:56 AM 849 Views
Possibly? It's the witches in Macbeth. *NM* Rebekah - 05/08/2010 08:36:20 AM 846 Views

Perhaps Camilla - 29/07/2010 09:29:53 AM 1629 Views
