Question #3: Is Snape a hero? An anti-hero? A guy who doesn't like to use shampoo or go shopping for new clothes? All of the above? What do you think?

And, if it were not for Lily Potter, which side would he have been on? Did he ever care about Harry? Do you think he had to die? What did you think of the scene in the Shrieking Shack?

For those of you who have said he was your favorite character (before you read Book 7), why is he your favorite? Did you believe in Snape from the beginning? If not, at which point did you start trusting him?

Is there anything else you want to know about him? Discuss away!
