Looking Back: Harry Potter

My sister is reading Harry Potter, which sparked my thoughts about looking back. Looking back at a series is interesting to me to see how or why a character developed. Harry, for the most part, did not change. He was still adventurous and knew from his upbringing what is right and wrong. Ron and Neville really changed. They went from shy little children to brave men who destroy horocruxes. Hermonie just became less pretentious. Malfoy was never bad, but a product of his bad upbringing. In conclusion, you never know how the character will turn out until the end. You can only predict, (and yes that is how fan websites get popularity).
