Let me start by saying that I'm not good at determining what is or isn't a spoiler, so to be safe - POSSIBLE SPOILERS ahead!

I really love Stan as a character, I wish he would have had a more important role or at least a reoccurring one! He's easily one of my favorites, and so is Lupin ♡

"I don't go looking for trouble, trouble usually finds ME."

One thing I noticed is that Malfoy wasn't very aggressive toward Buckbeak in the book. It was surprising, honestly. I get that Hippogryfs are proud creatures, but it seems like he didn't act nearly as aggressive as would be needed for Bucky to attack.

Honestly, I think this might be my favorite HP book. It has all of my favorite things - Lupin, Stan, Sirius, and of course, the Dementors ♡ I love those things.

Another thing that kind of annoyed me was Hermione. I get she was just looking out and being stressed about her classes, and that's she's supposed to be this goody two shoes straight lace character, but I got pretty damn upset when she told McGonagall about the broom. Like, her intentions were good, true, but that's not being a good friend, in my opinion.

"Perhaps we should think about dragons at the school entrance?" That would be so dope, please do that, Minister lol Also, did I miss something or just forget... when was there a giant ass squid in the lake???

"That brings her total of real predictions up to two. I should offer her a pay raise..." The sass in Dumbledore is real folks, and I love it! Also, wise Dumbledore. "You think the dead we have loved ever truly leave us? You think that we don't recall them more clearly than ever in times of great trouble?"

Overall, I'm really tempted to say this is my favorite year! And the ending, ahhh, I do love the fluff so much. Ron asking Crookshanks to sniff the owl is literally the cutest thing ever! ♡♡
