The character of Ginny Weasley tends to leave readers wanting more. Could her character have been improved by one small plot change?
Harry needs both Ron and Hermione in his life; together, Ron and Hermione generously provide all the elements that Harry needs to be a fully functioning, more-than-adequately happy human being.

Hear me out before you call him a prat. Okay, even I can admit he’s a total prat, but he’s my favorite prat. Here’s why.
