Luna:
Hi Rizza, I agree with every word in your message. I think that H/G 
didn't come out of the blue, it was heavely foreshadowed as well as 
Ginny's personality was foreshadowed in COS and in GOF. Honestly, 
Ginny in OOP didn't come as a surprise to me as H/G in HBP didn't 
either.
The point is that we would've liked to see more of the romance 
evolving between them in HBP. I would've liked to see more 
interaction scenes between those two... Jo could've sacrificed some 
of those Ron/Lavender snogging scenes for a H/G nice conversation or, 
well, just a snogging scene, whatever... something more! How come we 
see Ron and Hermione's reaction to Harry kissing Ginny and we don't 
see Ginny's reaction! She's the one that got kissed!
I general, I did like the book, I just feel that Jo failed to write 
H/G properly in HBP...
