Finding out that Moody wasn't Moody. I liked him so much! And I wasn't 
expecting JKR to pull the Teacher-Is-Really-Working-For-Voldemort ploy 
again. I must say, I'll be on "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!" from here on out when it 
comes to the new teachers...maybe even the old as well. Anyone thing that 
McGonnagal will go to the Dark Side?

And Ginny being involved with the Diary and the Chamber of Secrets surprised 
me as well. I knew there was something fishy but didn't realize it until the 
end of the book.

Throw in Sirius being innocent, Remus being a werewolf, and Pettigrew being 
Scabbers and a traitor. I am such a dunce, the first two names should've 
clued me in.

Quirrel having Voldemort on his head was one of those "Ugh, really?" 
moments. I mean honestly, how many of you would allow an Evil Dark Lord to 
live on the back of your head?

Y'know what? Pretty much everything that wasn't straightforward surprised 
me. I'm a horrible reader, totally not analytical at all. I need either 
people to point things out to me or have the author fling the answer in my 
face.
