Severus Snape will always be my favorite Harry Potter
character in the series. He is such a complex man and I find it fascinating how
our perception of him changes so drastically throughout the series. Snape was
always portrayed as the “bad guy” throughout the books, until Harry Potter and
the Deathly Hallows. We find out so much in this book that should have been
picked up on at the beginning of the series.
As a reader, it was scary to see Snape be appointed
Headmaster of Hogwarts. We find out through the book however, that Snape used
his authoritative position to protect the students. Snape also used his
patronus to help Ron and Harry, which was another surprise in his character. When
Nagini finally kills Snape and his memories are flooded into the air, Harry can
see that Snape’s loyalty was to Lily and Harry the entire time. Snape was truly
the most selfless and complex character in the books.
