When Harry says that he wants to go live with Sirius instead of the 
Dursleys... Then Lupin transforms and it all goes down hill from there. I 
was SO upset, I just wanted to stop reading right then - I didn't but, you 
know.

Do angry tears count (okay I didn't boo hoo, but I was bleary eyed from 
frustration)? Aunt Marge! >_< I would've made her EXPLODE into tiny chunks! 
Believe it or not, I'm not a violent person but she tops my list of Most 
Hated Characters.

This one's a second read through moment. When Harry's looking at the mirror 
of Erised, and you know his deepest desire is for a *real* family. Awwww.

The whole of OotP made me feel like that. From beginning to end. Poor Harry, 
I was depressed through most of it. If its a good book I have stonge 
character empathy. You should have seen me reading the last chapters of The 
Scarlet Pimpernel, "Go Margerite! Go!"

Macho Man would make a great song title... Oh wait a minute.....
