Until now, all I knew was that I felt more than just pity for Draco in HBP, but whenever people asked me why he was my favourite character, I couldn't come up with an answer.
Now I know. It's a shame, though. If whatever's written in the editorial true, then JKR obviously did a shitty job of maintaining Draco's character in DH. I mean, I completely get the Room of Requirement scene, but the part where he pleads with the death eaters--she might as well have put on a sign saying "Draco fangirls,
die die die". Not to mention that she made him have a ~receding hairline~ in the epilogue, but that's another story.
But really, my point here is, there's no other book that I've reread this many times, analyzed this closely, and fangirled over this much, because, guess what? It's
EPIC. Y/Y? And the fact that Twilight and Harry Potter are mentioned in the same sentence without the word "pwns"--in the correct manner, mind you--pisses me off beyond belief. Compared to HP, Twilight is like one of my mum's drawings (sorry mum, but you do always brag about it despite, well). I agree that the first book is fairly entertaining and all, but, I mean, c'mon.
Seriously people?Harry Potter is
realistic--and don't give me crap about how wizards and werewolves aren't; I'd be the one laughing if you do--,
well-planned out and
well-executed. Yes, I'll bitch about how my favourite characters died and how Draco and Harry are meant for each other and that anyone who doesn't see that Sirius/Remus in the forest scene in DH was completely canon needs a fucking microscope to see, but that doesn't mean I like this series any less.
Twilight, on the other hand? It's a teenage romance--I'm omitting the word novel due to obvious reasons--written to and for get(ting) rid of boredom. You read it once or twice, and be happy that a vampire will ever "love" a mortal (a mary-sue, sure, but it's a step). I mean, yeah, he almost killed her and apparently dug a hole into her uterus, but hey, what does that matter, right? He dazzles the fangirls right off the page. DIE, EDWARD CULLEN, DIE.
There's absolutely no competition, but go
vote here anyway so that we can show those Twilighters a thing or two. Btw, even the comments are way more entertaining than Twilight.
And just to make sure that everyone gets the point:
