To get right to the point, the one part of all the Harry Potter books
that has always struck me was in book 5 when JKR stated that
Petunia's and Lily's eyes were very different. For some reason that
sentence stuck out to me, more than any other, as a clue and I have
not forgotten it. I have asked numerous friends what they thought of
it and no one seemed to have any good answers for me so I let it
slide- forgotten until today.
Today I was reading what JKR said about DH and this is one thing she
said:
"you might have got the impression that there is a little bit more to
Aunt Petunia than meets the eye, and you will find out what it is.
She is not a squib, although that is a very good guess. Oh, I am
giving a lot away here. I am being shockingly indiscreet."

After reading that, I went back and tried to figure out what she may
have said that was giving a lot away and the word "eye" stuck out to
me. This reminds me again about that sentence in book 5 saying Lily
and Petunia's eyes were "very different"... any ideas? It's killin'
me you guys. Honestly, I need some thoughts.
