I have always found myself to be a bit of kindred spirit with Harry. If you are at all invested in the characters, you are aware that Harry lost his parents at a young age. The real emotions that Harry goes through dealing with that loss are ones I can relate to. I lost a parent in my teens, granted there was no magic involved but it is a tragic process none the less. This installment's plot forces Harry to make peace but also find reason in the deaths of his parents. Again Harry's journey comes down to the differences between good and evil, but a muggle, such as myself, has the same struggles with life and death. Trying to find a greater meaning through the death of a parent is a hopeless search, but one that forces you to find your own strength and discover who you can truly lean on. Not to mention I have my own Hermione, a platonic friend who thinks logically when you cannot and offers support in the best way for you, even when all seems lost. Plus they can see the best in you when you cannot and know just how to pick you back up.
