One Week Countdown: Day 4

Four days is totally manageable, right? You can do this, HP fans!

My #4 favorite Potter moment:

Malfoy Freaking Manor!



Can you say heart in your throat, edge of your seat, omgwtfbbq storytelling? And keeping the action in the cellar with Ron and Harry, having Hermione's screams as the only indication of the horror above their heads, is brilliant and tense and, dare I say, Hitchcockian. Of course, the story demands that control, as the perspective is always Harry's. Nevertheless, there is nothing more chilling in all of the books put together than Ron clawing the walls to get to Hermione, who is being tortured to death, and nothing more telling about Harry's and Hermione's characters as the fact that they keep it together in that moment.

And that artist up there, Makani? Isn't she AMAZING?
