Can you believe it? I am doing Emily’s challenge early this week! Challenge # 8 – who or what do you miss?
I can’t believe it’s already been 2 months. Time flies..
There were a lot of ideas that came to mind for this challenge, but I went ahead and did my card on James. “James and I work very different schedules. A lot of the times I find myself alone. But that’s ok, cuz I get to hang out with the kitties”
Re-reading HP and the HBP this week and a thought came to me. (major Spoilers here)
Let’s take Dumbledore’s word and believe that Snape has come back to the good side. After the fall of Voldy, Snape comes back to the Order. Dumbledore testifies on his behalf in front of the Wizengamot and tells them that, at great risk to his own life, Snape turns spy against the dark side.
And we know from reading that it was Snape who overheard the Prophecy and told Voldemort. Then once Lily and James die, he realizes what a mistake he made and comes back.
So, if we take all of that… Does that mean that Snape knew that Wormtail was the traitor? And if so, when Sirius was locked in jail for 13 years, doesn’t that mean that Snape knew Sirius was charged incorrectly and did nothing about it? That doesn’t seem like the workings of a good guy.
Don’t get me wrong, I fully believe that Snape is actually working for the Order and doing everything under the orders of Dumbledore. But in book 3, he seems very determined to put Sirius away. For someone who is on such close terms with the Dark Lord, he must have known what the plan was that night, right?
I just found the coolest website, paperbackswap.com. I read about it on Real Simple. You simply list the paperbacks you want to swap out and the for the first 9 books you post you get 3 free swaps. Then you can pick from thousands of paperbacks to get for FREE! Everytime you swap a book out with someone, you get another credit for a trade.
Of course, you send the books media mail which takes about 20 days… but, you get FREE books! Check it out.
