Discussion Question #4
Here is a tough one for you. If you could change one thing in the Harry Potter books, what would it be and why?

One thing I would change would be Ginny and Harry's happily ever after. I like Ginny, don't get me wrong, but I find her too much a 'fan' of Harry more than anything else. I don't think Harry related to her very well and I found that he had more of a connection with Luna. Luna didn't judge him and she understood him in ways I didn't think anyone else did. I felt as though JK put Harry with Ginny in an attempt to relate them to James and Lily. And I love James and Lily, I do, but I just don't see Ginny as being the one for Harry.

I don't think it's healthy for her, either. She has a silly crush on him when she's ten, never gets over it, and then gets to marry him? That doesn't make for a marriage of equals and would arrest her emotional development to that of a ten year-old. They both deserve better. She fights alongside Neville in the Hogwarts Resistance. That would forge a much stronger, more long-lasting bond. I agree about Harry's relationship with Luna, that's a much better foundation for a couple.
