“Mostly they are really worried about Ron. What I find interesting is only once has anyone said to me, “Don’t kill Hermione,” and that was after a reading when I said no one’s ever worried about her. Another kid said, “Yeah, well, she’s bound to get through okay.” They see her as someone who is not vulnerable, but I see her as someone who does have quite a lot of vulnerability in her personality.“ – J.K. Rowling
