I'm not sure if I posted this in the right place, I hope so?

But I was thinking it would be fun to read what was your reaction to some of most shocking twists in the HP series! So now everyone is going to tell what they thought in HBP when....


1. Snape killed Dumbledore.

?!?!?! TILT. I just remember the complete and utter disbelief. I had been crying since DD's 'I'm not scared' line (I was absolutely certain he would die in the end) but when Snape came in and did the Avada Kedavra I stopped crying and my mind was compeletly blank. I had to read the line again: yes, it really was Snape and it was the AK and Dumbledore...... died? I still couldn't believe it and I said 'What the bloody hell---?' Then I started reading what happened next and when the horrible truth started to sink in I was crying more than I have ever cryied in my life. sad.gif

2. In HBP when Trelawney said 'but then we were rudely interrupted by Severus Snape!'

At this point I had to stop reading. I closed the book for a while and breathed deeply for a while. Not so much because of how shocking the information itself was but I knew that Harry was going to be absolutely...... well just bloody angry.

Please tell me your experiences and if you can remember some more twists when you were like 'what?!', it would be nice to hear them. I'm too tired to come up with anymore than these two at the moment.

'That which Voldemort does not value, he takes no trouble to comprehend. Of house-elves and children’s tales, of love, loyalty, and innocence, Voldemort knows and understands nothing. Nothing. That they all have a power beyond his own, a power beyond the reach of any magic, is a truth he has never grasped.'<3
