@m@nd@: Harry has got a family :The Order of the Pheonix. Harry says that he thinks of these people as his family now at the end of ootP. You're right of course, he still yearns for a real family but I think Jo leaves Harry alone constantly. I kinda think that's the point of HP; the chosen one must always walk alone.

weezem: I dunno, maybe I'm a heartles cow or maybe 'cause I was disappointed by OotP but Sirius's death; another heart ache for Harry; another impassioned rave by Harry just didn't hit me.

I agree with you that Sirius is dead and I don't think he's coming back. I really liked the way that you explain that if Jo did bring him back, death will lose it's barb.. what's the point?! You put it better... i agree though.

Sirius and Harry made each other happy for a moment but they were both such moody buggers that I found them pretty depressing. The whole of OotP was depressing really -
JO!!! give us some more Gred and Forge AND PEEVES!!!! Please!
