All very true, Emma. I think he is trying too hard to be critical, if that makes sense. Like you said, he needs to be able to read rather than critique every little thing. It is, as I said above, mostly written for entertainment...
I disagree; I don't think his critiquing is anything I haven't heard fans say. There's no point in having media if it doesn't encourage people to engage with it both appraisingly and critically. But it does seem people these days would rather be "entertained to death" than use their minds.

Mr. Hitchens was saying, re: religion, that Harry & Hermione didn't recognise the apparent bible versus, which they didn't. It's not something to be agreed or disagreed with - it's just a fact.

Because he finds her more attractive than Ginny.
