I always thought Draco was a good foil for Harry, and liked how he wasn't truly evil. Pansy, well...I just liked the idea of seeing what made the cliquey bitch types click, and I grew to love her. I liked Fleur in DH, in HBP she annoyed me. I like Molly, but I agree...really, she can be a shrew. Luna is love!
True enough about George. I say Molly pushed him into marrying her, because the way i see it, George would rather be with Fred but doesn't want to hurt his family. *hugs George* I feel the worst for him and Andromeda, who happen to be two characters close to my heart. I honestly do feel like I have collected JKR's broken toys in a way. :(
YAY! I agree about the puppies. ;) And yes...I would rather have seen both twins die, or neither. Just one...that's unforgiveable in my eyes. If they both died, at least they could go join Peeves and haunt Hogwarts together.
