3. Do you like the descriptions of the Quidditch matches? Are they
just a waste of pages?
Personally, I love Lee Jordan's commentaries and the whole idea of quidditch except for one quibble. The seeker's role is far too significant in a "team" game. I don't know of any real sport where one of the players is so influential every game. How often does it happen that someone catches the snitch and loses? (P.S. did anyone notice the similarity between a qudditch pitch and an Aussy Rules Football pitch?)
4. Only 50 points from Slytherin for the dementor trick? (Harry,
Hermione, and Neville lost 150 in the Norbert aftermath.) Should it
have been more? less? detention?
I thought this was about right at the time, but I also thought the Norbert penalty was way too harsh.
6. Why did Percy pin his HB badge to his jammies? Is he afraid the
others will forget he *is* Head Boy?
Percy was just being his pompous self. I would have thought he would have transferred the badge to his Jammies each night just in case such an occasion arose.
7. Neville: brave, or "abysmally foolish"?
Brave to own up in front of the whole house. I see poor Neville as a kind of house mascot who everybody loves for his tenacity.
8. How did Sirius Black get into the castle?
He followed Crookshanks in through whichever entrance he uses.
