Ummn...Hi.

Now that I have your attention, I just wanted to start a debate about 
a character that wasn't Snape, Harry, or Dumbledore.  That character 
is OOTP!Ginny.  I separate her from Ginny in the rest of the series 
because she bears no resemblance to book 1-4 Ginny. Am I the only 
person who was annoyed by her sudden prominence in OOTP?  She burst 
onto the scene like a bad fanfic character, suddenly good at 
everything without a cohensive explanation and it certainly detracted 
from my enjoyment of the book.  Was I the only who felt that way?

I actually enjoyed Ginny in OOTP.  I liked her spirit.  I also didn't find
it odd that she suddenly burst on the scene.  she's always been there, even
though she's been in the background.  she's always made her mark.  however,
I think that she's at an age now, where she will become a more interesting
person than the little girl she was in the first book.  I found her very
natural.  She is one person who wasn't intimidated by Harry's bad moods and
anger.  I would expect her to be good at things, because she's had so many
big brothers to learn from.  I think she would have had to learn to hold her
own to be her own person with that gang.  She seems to be a good mix of the
twins and Ron and her mom, too.  I'm very interested to see who she becomes
as she matures.
