I’ve read HP3 before, but for a 8-page chapter, “The Dementor’s Kiss” just sucks all the happiness out of me….rather [appropriately].
I am irate that Remus turns into a Werewolf and Peter escapes. But I think I’m saddest that Harry will never get to live with Sirius.

I didn’t have enough characters to finish my thoughts. I am almost disconsolate right now about this. Even if Harry just lived a perfect week with Sirius as his guardian that would satisfy me.
I can’t help but be heartbroken at the awesomeness that could never be. I imagine them living in an old hunter’s cottage in the Hogwarts area that Harry bought with lots of his money. But no, it can’t happen. No going out for butterbeers or a pint with Hagrid on the weekend and hanging out in Hogsmeade at the joke shop or Honeydukes. No trips to Diagon Alley every start of term for school shoppig, ice cream and maybe sightseeing. I bet there’s a secret wizard Madame Tussauds they could go to with dummies doing bloody historical reenactments! But no! No lounging around the house, a pair of wizard bachelors subsisting on chocolate frogs and magical ramen and liking it. No broom races or taking spins on Sirius’ motorbike. No Quidditch World Cup trips with the Weasleys and Lupins. No playing catch in the yard with Buckbeak while steaks magically grill themselves for lunch.
I’m devastated that this can never happen. I’m not looking forward to Book 5, if my fangrief is this potent now.
