Things You Didnt Catch at First

I’m slowly re-reading DH, and taking notes on the little things that I didn’t catch at first.

One, that I love, is at Harry’s birthday dinner. Ron compliments Hermione, and Harry “had a funny notion that he would find a chapter on compliments when he found time to peruse his copy of Twelve Fail-Safe Ways to Charm Witches” (pg. 101 UK). Then, Harry compliments Mrs. Weasley on the Snitch cake, and Ron gives Harry thumbs up and mouths “good one”. I didn’t notice at first, but Ron was under the impression that Harry had been reading that chapter on compliments!

Another one is when the trio is discussing Horcruxes, and Ron asks how they can posses someone. Hermione says, “You’re in trouble if you get too fond of or dependant on the Horcrux.” (pg. 91 UK) That’s exactly what happened to Dumbledore – he was so fascinated at having one of the Hallows he’d once dreamed of finding, that he allowed himself to become too close.

Are there any other things that you didn’t catch at first?

Those are great catches. I honestly need to go re-read the books myself to catch more. I was so instantly absorbed in the magic and characters that I know I missed a ton!

Thankfully, the one thing I didn't miss or misread was Snape. I knew he was going to play a critical role and it was going to be for the greater good. I do remember being surprised when Harry saw some of his past though, I was thinking - oh that's explains A LOT! And again, in the later books when you read of his crush on Lilly.

There is a ton of things that i caught like the 2nd or 3rd time through, Im so glad i reread dh cause i think i really rushed that one. But what was the thing/person rolling around on the floor when harry talks to dumbledore, between life and death? I still have not caught on tho that one yet.....
*BTW Holly watch out with the snape talk people go crazy lol, they will be trying to ge you to join teams, Im on team snape lol

i absolutly have to listen to it on auidio book for my brain to register anything that's wierd and not fitting.

I acctualy caugh thoose the first time but it was lots of things I did miss, butu I am too tired atm to writ them, but as I rushed trough the book in exitement (13 hours straithg and English is second language I missed much but I have re read it quite many times )
