Leslie Brooks:
Ginny fans will probably hurl things at me but I don't like Ginny. 
She, to me, is perfect in every possible way.  She did one wrong thing
(which everybody does) but then seemed to become so perfect.  It
irritates me.

Steph:
While she's not on my MAC list, Ginny isn't one of my favorites,
either, and I really wanted to like her.  I just don't get why she's
supposed to be so great.  There's a huge disconnect between what JKR
says Ginny is like, and how she comes off on the page.  She isn't a
horrible person, but I don't think she's very nice or that powerful. 
She's very good at Quidditch, and from the little we hear, she seems
to be pretty good academically, and is pretty level-headed.  I also
like that she's not a girly-girl.  But aside from the trip to the MoM,
we don't really see her do any spectacular magic, aside from her famed
bat-bogey hex.  She can be mean and sarcastic, not warm at all.  I'm
not opposed to her relationship with Harry, but it just seemed to come
out of nowhere and it never really seemed believable.
