Eileen:
Harry could be picked up from Privet Drive by Lupin,
during which it is revealed that Lupin had an affair
with Aunt Petunia some years earlier. Once he gets to
Hogwarts he could discover that Dumbledore has
dissected Cedric Diggory and placed his various body
parts in the drawers of an oak cabinet, so as to
communicate with him in the other world.

Me:

Eileen, it could be much worse. JKR could describe Harry's hair as 'ebony' or 'raven' and Harry could notice that Hermione's or Ginny's eyes are 'honey-coloured.' (And as clear as Himalayan lakes. <rolls eyes>) And I honestly hope that the word 'blossomed' won't be used to describe any girl in OoP.

"Harry's jaw dropped when he saw Hermione/Ginny/ Lavender/Parvati. She had blossomed into a beautiful young lady over the summer. Her enormous honey eyes were as clear as Himalayan lakes." 

Oh, dear. That was scary. It looks like I'll be having some nightmares myself. Almighty JKR save us from such sappiness!

Maria, LOL
