Yeah, her name does give you a good feeling about her automatically. There's no way she can turn out to be evil with a name like Lovegood (crossing my fingers). She cracks me up because she seems to be so nonchalant about everything.

You're right. Harry does seem a little funky in this one, hunh? I think it's about time he gets upset. This whole Harry vs. Voldemort thing is a little much for a 15-year-old kid. I think, by this time, if I were Harry I would want to just live life as an adolescent and not be burdened by knowing someone wants ME DEAD.

Okay, I have to agree with you here. I hadn't really thought of it that way. I guess I'd be a little pissy, too, if I'd been through everything that he has. Plus, he's fifteen now and I guess by virtue of being a teenager, he has a right to bug out every once in a while. But, he was GOING OFF in the beginning, LOL.

Kingsley Shacklebolt does seem like he will be an interesting character. I would rather see this character played by someone other than Michael Clarke Duncan, though. Since Wizards are known for their intelligence, not their physical strength, maybe someone like Don Cheedle would better fit the role?.

I'm picturing Michael Clarke Duncan because the book describes him as tall, black, bald (I think I may have made the bald part up, I'll check) and with a hoop earring in his ear. I would much rather see Don Cheedle, though.

She looked at me as if she wasn't sure what I had just said and I was so surprised at myself that I clamped my mouth shut and forbade myself to speak another word.
