    I loathe the part in the fourth book where Hermione tries to advocate for freeing the elves working in Hogwarts kitchen and everyone else just doesn’t give a shit. Even Harry who didn’t grow up believing that the elves wanted to be slaves just couldn’t have cared less. Hermione just eventually gave up. The best thing about the movie is that, that part didn’t make it in.

      Those books are really mean to Hermione and the other women for no reason. We all thought Hermione was the self insert, but it’s Harry.

        Didn’t JK say that the closest thing to a self-insert in the books is that reporter? You know, the one that takes pictures of teenagers in the bathroom while disguised as a fly on the wall?

        Why does that sound so familiar? 🤔
