Welcome back for the 4th day of The Harry Potter 30 Days Challenge. Leannaatc @Short Story Long has this idea of a month full of Harry Potter and you can find the prompt for each day here here.
– Day 4: Who’s your least favourite female character and why? –
This is actually a hard one. My first thought went to Dolores Umbridge, but honestly, no, I hate her (more than anyone else in these books), but she’s so well written that I like to read about her, you know?! I love to hate her!
So my least favorite is the next despicable woman in the Harry Potter series: Rita Skeeter!
I just find her despicable in every sense of the world. The way bends the words to her will, and takes pleasure in ruining someone else’s lives just to get ahead, really makes my skin crawl… because, unfortunately, she’s a very real character! There are so many people that are just like her, that it’s scary to think about how low some people are willing to sink to get ahead.
Best moment was when Hermione outsmarted her (like the bright witch she is) and trapped her in that jar! I laughed so much, first because it was so Hermione-like thing to do, but mostly, because Rita Skeeter deserved it most than anyone!

What about you? Who is your least favorite female character from the Harry Potter series?
– Day 3: Is there anything in the film adaptations that annoyed you? –
Oooh Rita, didn’t like her but I think that the least favorite female character for me would have to be either Bellatrix or Umbridge ugh
I hate Umbridge, but I kind of like Bellatrix (maybe it’s just because I really love Helena Bonham-Carter)
Haha maybe — she’s a wonderful actress. I just hated her cause she killed Sirius and he was my favorite lol
lol, well, for that logic… she’s awful! 😉
Rita Skeeter is my second most hated female character and Bellatrix is third.
I loved what Hermione did too! It was brilliant!! 😀
it was also the first time she did something that wasn’t “nice”, which was so cool 😀
