I got spoiled for that by my friends. It went something like that:
Me: * enters the room *
Cocoapaw: what are you reading?
Me: Harry Potter 6!
Cocoapaw: oh, I don’t like this one
Glasspaw: oh, because Dumbledore died?
I just started the book…. I started crying infort of their eyes. They were so confused
Yeah, I dressed up as a Ravenclaw student and went to King’s Cross with a couple of my friends! It was cool and the west end cast of the Cursed Child did a small showy thing. It was great!
Would it hurt J.K to give Hermione (and the other girls) A LITTLE more backbone????????????????????? I mean, REALLY??????? What I’m reading enrages me!!!!!! If you’ve ever read the books you’ll know what I mean!!!
EDIT: But now that I think about it, this might be her man editor’s work!!
While I have issues with Rowling and her writing, I do think Hermione was a character with a lot of agency! The movies tend to gloss over it, but she was really ruthless – I mean, she captured Rita Skeeter and kept her in a jar for who knows how long 😛 . She’s incredibly stubborn and often refuses to take no for an answer. While this is more a character /flaw/ and often means she does less than moral actions, it does mean that she doesn’t accept anything without putting up a fight. And she’s dedicated as heck! C’mon, the girl took double the amount of classes as expected when she was 13! All 13 year old me wanted to do was doodle in class
I think that there are other female characters that do get messed up by the narrative, most notably Cho Chang, Ginny Weasley, and the Patil twins, but I think Hermione turned out okay
Yea 😛 I mean, while J.K. describes Ginny as “hardened by her brothers” or something, that shouldn’t even be noted! Females cry so much it’s not even realistic. Ginny cries as much as any of them. But yes, there are many times where I’m like, “GO HERMIONE, YOUR’E DA BOSS!!!!!” 😛
And other times where, for example, when she says (I just read this part);
*spoiler for book 7 below*

Personally, I have the headcanon that Ginny got so tough from /defending/ her brothers from ridicule/fights, though that’s never directly said in the books if I remember right.
Haven’t read the 7th one in about 8 years, so I can’t say what that one’s like in terms of its female characters, though I do think that crying is not inherently a sign of weakness. Some people cry it out when they have a problem and some people don’t. Both are okay and neither makes a character – or person – more or less strong. It’s more how you deal with your problems and work past them that truly determine your strengths 🙂
Though I haven’t read the book in a long time, so I’m not sure how it’s handled^^
Spoiler alert for the deathly hallows and the order of the Phoenix
.

I cried when Lupin and Tonks died, they were some of my favourite characters
I cried the most when Sirius died though, he’s my favourite character, when I read the Order of the Phoenix, I was just wailing why, why did Sirius have to die ..
I cry a lot over books. I cried when Cinderpelt died and when Bluestar died.
Same, same :'( It was so sad, why………??????????????????????????? All the people that matter most!!!! At one point I was like, “Not Hagrid, not Hagrid!!” I was so scared he would go too, it was a massive relief that he didn’t. Everyone who where closest to Harry seemed to by dying left and right. I still don’t know how J.K had it in her to stand putting all her characters to their deaths 🙁
(Also Fred Weasly and Dumbledore and Hedwig) :'(((
Sooooooo
I started the first book so I’m officially part of the Harry Potter fandom
