Random observation: Rowling (or possibly just this edition of the book, but either way) apparently doesn’t know how to punctuate split dialogue properly. Here’s a sample:

“Oh, I am glad I’m not on duty,” muttered Mr. Weasley sleepily, “I wouldn’t fancy having to go and tell the Irish they’ve got to stop celebrating.”

Yeah.... I’m pretty sure that there should be a period after “sleepily” there, rather than a comma.

I know that’s a little thing and I guess there are no hard-and-fast punctuation rules, but seriously? That’s an amateur fanfic mistake!


Read Chapter 9 )
