I would like to propose Ginny as the most likely candidate for the 'bad death' in book five. She is a big fan of Harry's, she is a foreground character but not a pivotal one, and her death is likely to be more painful to write aboutfor JKR because of how
close we as the reader (and, undoubtedly, her as the writer) feel to the Weasley family. I am a HUGE Ginny fan however, and perhaps I am steeling myself for the worst, as many others seem to be. I don't know. Ginny's death makes sense. The only problems I can see with this (I'll write them before anyone else can) is that a) she came very clos to dying in CoS, so perhaps it's too close to having been done
before (if that makes sense) and b) I can't imagine her death having repercussions for Harry that don't involve a lot of guilt (that he couldn't save her or whatever) and that's definately been done before! Now this would be a huge blow to me, as I generally root for the Harry/Ginny 'ship, so please can other Ginny fans not curse my name!

The thin man had stepped out of the cauldron, staring at Harry ... and Harry stared back at the face that had haunted his nightmaresfor three years. Whiter than a skull, with wide, livid scarlet eyes, and a nose that was as flat as a snake's with slits for nostrils ... Lord Voldemort had risen again.
