Doesn't she give away everything about Remus Lupin in
his name, which comes from lupus meaning wolf-like? I
normally do not catch on very fast to things, but I
was familiar with the word and knew he was a werewolf,
or something similar the first time I saw his name.
That was a very obvious clue to give away.
Anyway, this is my first time posting, but I've been
reading for a while. I'm a little intimidated by all
of your knowledge, so you probably won't hear much
from me, but I was struck by this passage. Thanks!
