I'm off for a few more days so I thought I'd pick up book 1 since it has
been ages since I read the first book in the series. I have found a few
interesting points, most of them have been discussed online, but one point
hasn't as far as I can recall.
On Harry's first night at Hogwarts he has a dream that he's wearing
Quirrell's turban and it's telling him that he "should transfer to Slytherin
at once, because it is your destiny to be in Slytherin."
When Harry tells the turban that he doesn't want to be in Slytherin, it gets
heavier and heavier. He sees Malfoy and Snape in his dream and they are both
laughing at him as the turban gets tighter and heavier and very painful.
This made me pause and wonder exactly what does this mean? If I didn't know
that Voldemort is living in Quirrell's body and his face is visible under
the turban I wouldn't have made anything of this, as I did not make anything
of it the first time I read the book, but this puts a strange twist in the
story now, because I know exactly what is under Quirrell's turban.
