[HPforGrownups] The Death of Book 5

[Melanie L Ellis]

No: HPFGUIDX 59157

Has anyone thought that maybe, just maybe, the death in OoP was not
"horrible to write" because it's the death of a current (and presumably
loved) character, but instead "horrible" because she chose to write a
nasty, dark, awful torturous death for someone that we may or may not
know yet?

It's my understanding that the books are supposed to get progressively
darker, and this would fit into it. I really hope not, since they are
ostensibly children's books, but at the same time I don't want to see a
loved character bite the big one, either!

Maybe it's a combo deal - Voldie tortures Snape, trying to determine the
truth about Snape, and ends up killing him either by accident or because
he discovers that he's really DD's spy. Oh, the horribleness! Oh, the
anguish for Snape-lovers! ;-)
