SPOILERIFFIC!!

I can't be bothered doing analysis at this point. It's no fun on your own, so I'll wait for the rest of the world to catch up and I'll comment on their journals instead.

So I'm just going to post my favourite line and random things. These things are still SPOILERS.

So don't say you weren't warned.

My favourite line, this just made me giggle like mad for some reason: And to Harry's horror, Slughorn threw out an arm and seemed to scoop Snape out of thin air towards them.

Luna commentating the Quiddich was a stroke of genius.

I don't know if slash has rotted my brain, but the first three quarters of the book read like Harry/Draco to me. Am I insane? I don't even like or care about this pairing, but the number of times it was pointed out that Harry was obsessed with Draco, a complete turnaround from the previous books I might add, kind of made me wonder...

Speaking of Draco; crying? The fangirls are going to be all over this one. I'm just waiting for someone to write Moaning Myrtle!Sue.

What was with all the snogging? I wasn't even kissed until I was 20! Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I actually am the freak. It still weirded me out, being overage and reading about these sixteen year old kids.

My OTP lives! Crabbe/Goyle is still plausible. Maybe even more so than before, with all that gender-bending polyjuice.

I really, really liked those bits about Voldemort's past. I just enjoyed reading them.

Oh, and the final proof that JKR is a genius: Harry sees Snape Avada Kedavra Dumbledore and we're still not sure which side he's on. At least, I'm not. Snape still didn't kill Harry, or even curse him until he finally lost it, he just kept bouncing them back. Gah! -_- I think JKR likes Snape more than she lets on.

I think the snogging was pretty realistic, though I suppose the proportion of people who are getting snogged is higher than RL. But getting snogged at 15 is not unusual. I had my first boyfriend at 15. It was a complete disaster, but I mean, I was a geek. If I could get a bf, so could all the HP characters.

Crabbe an Goyle as little girls was hilarious. Luna - I think I;m in love with Luna. Sooo funny.

My favourite line, I think, is "Mollywobbles". That one had me in stitches.

Butbutbut...the kids at high school were all so immature and stupid and mean. I mean, ewww. Then again, I didn't notice boys until I was what...seventeen I guess.

I know Crabbe and Goyle are just there for comic relief, but I would like to know more about them. I just wonder what they really think about Draco etc.

Well, neither Ron nor Hermione conduct themselves with much in the ay of maturity until the end of the book. And at the end of the book, these kids had to grow up fast.

Besides, not everyone at school was immature and stupid and mean. Two of my friends who got together at 15 are now married - I know of a few others. Granted these are isolated cases, but it's not out of the question - and in such an isolated community as Hogwarts perhaps it's more likely. Besides, Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny have all been through enough to bring their maturity level somewhat above average - though they still seem very teenage in many ways.
