Re: Harry's continued insistence about Malfoy really irritates me (even though he's right). Camilla Send a noteboard - 26/10/2010 09:23:09 AM
I dislike stubborn people. They're too similar to me.


Indeed.

McLaggen is a dick. Um.


He is.

The Quidditch trials felt awkward to me. Suddenly there are loads of Gryffindors that haven't been mentioned before? That feels like bad plotting to me (and should possibly have been under that heading. :P)


Hmm, yes.

Voldemort's family history is interesting. Although I thought at the start of book 4 or 5 there was something about the Riddle family dying? I'm all confused now.


He killed them later, when he had grown up. At this point in the story he is not yet born.

Hermione's irritation re the Potions book is annoying. Move along, children.

But I love the interplay between her and Ron. Back and forth jealousy. And it's so real that she's aware and he isn't.


Yes.

And Harry's just about at the point of realising that he fancies Ginny. It's cute.


Indeed.

That's all for now.

Folks.
