MAIN CHARACTERS: Ginny Weasley

FIC SUMMARY: The feeling that she’d either kill or be killed at Hogwarts this year hadn’t left her all summer.

RECCER'S NOTES: Ginny during the seventh book. Wonderful character study. I love her strength, her stubbornnes and snarkyness and her vulnerability and her spine.
