I like most of the characters quite well as I think they fit snugly
into their world and fill their roles (Best Friend - Male, Best
Friend - Female, Wise Benevolent Grandfather Figure, etc.)
wonderfully.

The characters I DON'T like are those that jar or take me out of the
story.  Such as:

Winky: as someone (sorry, can't remember the name) said, it's Jar Jar
Binks time.  She's just so irritating and I kept expecting her to say
something about "birthin' babies".  I hope the other elves sound more
like Dobby who has some great lines.

Rita Skeeter: I just could not believe that the Daily Prophet could
be a regular newspaper for three books and then morph into a tabloid.
 RS is not at all believable to me and I usually skipped quickly over
any scenes that she was in.  

Lockheart: I had a hard time understanding why Dumbledore would hire
him except for comic relief or to give Snape some dueling practice.

I also thought Madame Maxine's and Fleur's "French" accents were
silly.  The French Canadians I know and work with don't sound
anything like that, no matter how strong their accents are.
