This always irritated me. I was not a fan of the series when it first came out. My two best friends were, but I put it down right after Draco was introduced. He was the first character I liked right at his introduction. I felt bad for him immanently as he tried to become friends with Harry despite Harry's horrible appearance—when NO ONE had ever been interested in Harry, not even Hagird who was sent to get him and was nice because he knew his parents—and Harry just kept annoying me.
There were a lot of things I did love about it from the start, but I knew that my favorite character would be bashed through the whole book and that a character I did't like would be rewarded. :/ So I didn't continue it.
I gave it another chance later on and loved book three. It is still one of my favourites. But her saying I had some weird sexual attraction to an 11 year old (pre the movies ever even coming out) character at sixteen just annoys me. Even when the movies did come out—sorry I was not attracted to him as a child. It had nothing to do with how I saw the story.
