Somehow, I've missed Tey and Christie, possibly by mainlining SF through high school and college. At some point I'll cover the gaps in my literary pop knowledge.
Words cannot express how much I hate Dobby. He's, like, the JarJar Binks of Harry Potter for me.
When Rowling says "house elf", I say, "skim time!"
Also, it was completely and unbelievably stupid for Harry and Ron to take the car to Hogwarts in Book 2. Would it have killed them to, you know, wait 5 minutes for his parents to come back first?!
At their age? Yes.
One of my favorite scenes in the entire series is Snape finding the Harry and Ron outside the welcoming feast. "Where's Snape?" "Maybe he left!" "Maybe he's sacked!" "Or maybe he's standing right behind you." I am a sucker for comedy.
