Yeah, indeed, through Google you can find some interesting points, some of which are really amazing! Still, I think that the entire story is so well tied that these minor holes seem trivial.

Still, the third Hallow is described as a cloak that "endures eternally, giving constant and impenetrable concealment, no matter what spells are cast at it" (p.333). Maybe the difference lies in the fact that Moody's eye isn't actually a spell?:confused:

Well, sorry to bring back the whole Invisibility Cloak issue, but as far as I remember, Moody was able to see Harry through it, wasn't he?

I am not quite sure that it is so easy to read The Name of the Rose and appreciate the entire story without having studied previously about Medieval History. I have read it two years ago, without having studied at school Medieval History, and I was completely unable to understand the behavior of...

I recently read Of mice and men for school, and I can say I admired the way Steinbeck illustrated the society of the 1930's. :) Thinking of the messages the book gets across, I feel that George was forced to kill Lennie because otherwise he (Lennie) would suffer a painful death; he would be...
