I'm not going to admit anything to from the second i read PS (or SS depending where you live) that I thought snape was really a good guy.
But i remember ofr some reason during book 4 feeling this tiny pang of pity and sadness and then a tiny bit more in book 5. After HBP, i finished it before my tutor came over and i remember straight away saying for some reason i think snapes still a good guy and theres more to him and he said yeah i think it was a set-up with DD.
It freaked me out becuase he was right...but he also said i bet DD is still alive, which was wrong.
Anyway my question was...did anyone have that feeling in HBP and the earlier ones that snape had something more and was better than he appeared? or did you lose all hope after he did his deed in HBP?

And without thinking, without planning it, without worrying that fifty people were watching, Harry kissed her.
Secretly I wanted Snape to hug Harry, just once, think Dr cox and J.D...

At the end of HBP I was totally convinced that Snape was Dumbledore's man. There were too many clues that he was on that side of the fight. I even read somewhere on these threads that Snape was actually in love with Lily and that was why he turned. I thought that was very plausible.
At the beginning of DH when he gave away the right date and then maimed George, I began to doubt my belief. Jo did a masterful job of instilling that doubt. I never quite believed he was Voldemort's, but my certainty that he was Dumbledore's began to falter. I missed the clue about him "punishing" the kids by sending them to Hagrid. That was a dead giveaway of his true loyalty, but it flew right past me.
Then came the Prince's Tale and I slapped my forehead. I had been right all along, but had started to doubt. Congratulations to Jo for an unbelievably twisted plot.

I thought he was Dumbledore's man after HBP too. I couldn't accept thaat Dumbledore would make such a h uge mistake. I called the loving Lily thing too  . I took the Lupin point of view, with if you trust Dumbledore. I have too admit I doubted him in the beginning of DH after Charity Burbage was murdered, I wasnt so sure.
