yea i think that was another reason dumbledore made ron and hermione perfects, to kind of keep them out of his shadow. Also ron kind of got some of harrys perspective on the whole fame thing. For once instead of harry trying to hide himself being a hero, we see ron trying to comfort harry because hes not a prefect. It was like a good bridging the power gap between them. I for one liked harrys anger but can also see why people wouldnt. As said before people dont like it when their heros get angry or in my words are human. I guess just because harry has always been so great and wonderful and also because hes a fictional wizard, people get this unhuman view of him. Almost like he's a demi god or something. Making harry angry kind of brought him back down to earth. I for one liked it, I have always liked these books, because in some ways, especially in the first book I could relate to harry a little bit. As the books went on well, i couldnt relate as much, but getting angry is a characteristic that I have as well, and Harry's anger made me feel not so distant from him.

I also really liked Harry being human. Harry is my all time favorite character from any book. I love this character. There is a little Harry in most of us. He is real, he is caring, he has felt loss and rejection yet he still finds a way to carry on and rise above those who try to keep him down. Harry is a true hero.

I am becoming emotional too.

On a more serious note, I agree with Sherry and KJ to a certain extent.
