Severus Snape
Ron’s sister and the youngest member of the Weasley clan. Ginny is a tough and talented witch, as well as an excellent Quidditch player. In Half-Blood Prince Ginny begins to step out from her brothers’ shadow, developing a close friendship with Hermione and dating Dean Thomas despite Ron’s disapproval. While she’s nursed a crush on Harry for years, he only reciprocates her feelings this year and is hesitant to pursue them for fear of disrupting his friendship with Ron. However, in her relationships with both Dean and Harry, Ginny displays remarkable self-confidence and insists that Ron is not entitled to any input on her romantic decisions. In doing so, she manifests an emotional maturity that neither her brother nor Harry currently possess.
