ME:  Actually, I did *not* cry when I read about Sirius's death, and 
reading this list makes me wonder why not, since it seems that just 
about everyone else *did*. 
 
I was right in the middle of the book when someone opened up their big mouth 
and told me who died.  I was soooo upset.  My best friend, knowing that it 
was Sirius and who was grieving because she loved Sirius as much as I love 
Remus, somehow said the right thing and led me away from thinking it was 
Sirius... but it was becoming pretty obvious to me because Sirius was becoming more and more restless and it wasn't in his nature to just sit around... he wanted to be out there doing something to help.
 
There were tears in my eyes when I read it but I'd be crying buckets if it 
were Remus... and I was really scared that it might be Remus before I read the 
book.
 
Sorry for rambling.
