Harry Potter
I finished HBP last night. If we hadn't been in the middle of packing, I'd have probably finished it on Saturday, but well, packing had to be a priority. Then again, if it weren't for HBP, I'd have probably found packing to be even more challenging.
I was surprised at J.K Rowling's choice of the word "slut"-not that there's anything wrong with that word in my vocabulary, or many of my peers, but it's a very judgemental word in general usage. And considering how young some of her audience is, it surprised me.
Did Snape kill Dumbledore because he's a bad guy, or because he made the Unbreakable Vow to protect Malfoy? Did he know that making the Vow would mean doing something like that?
