When I say perspective I mean in the way people viewed Sirius Black. Sirius Black was a wizard who was framed for murdering Harry Potter's parents by Peter Pettigrew. Because he was framed and he was put in Azkaban. Azkaban is basically a prison. Now everyone thinks that Sirius Black is the bad guy and that he killed Harry's Parents but he didn't, and the only person who knows that he innocent is Professor Lupin. The problem is that Harry doesn't know. He doesn't even find out that Sirius Black is innocent until the end of the book. I guess it isn't the peoples' fault, I mean Pettigrew probably did a pretty good job at framing Sirius Black.
I think Harry's past involving his parents always comeback to haunt him or just the past in the general. I say that based on my experience with the 3 books I have read. I always wonder how he deals with all this stuff at such a young age. What drives him. I think the only reason he is able to do all this advance magic and amazing skills is because it was pasted down from his father and he gained all the interest his dad had based what I have learned. I think what drives him is to protect his friends, himself, and the place he loves which is Hogwarts. I remember in the Chamber of Secrets book when the teachers at Hogwarts said that they would close the school, I sort of knew that Harry would do anything to prevent that from happening and that is exactly what happened.
Since I finished Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban it changed my views on how Harry feels about living with the Dursleys. To Harry sometimes I would think that he thinks that the Dursleys are worse than Professor Severus Snape. That is saying something. I am talking about this because Sirius mentioned to Harry that since he is Harry's Godfather that Harry could come live with him. The thing that surprised the was that Harry didn't even think about. He basically said that anything is better than the Dursleys.

Harry Potter And Relationships
I would like to talk about the relationship between Harry, Ron, and Hermione. I want to talk about obviously how important their relationship is to the story but also I want to go deeper then that. I find it very interesting that each of them influence the other in many different ways. Some of them good some of them bad. I think that Harry and Ron had the biggest influence on Hermione behavior wise. For example in the beginning of Sorcerer of Stone Hermione is very uptight and follows the rules. Basically she doesn't break any rules unlike Harry. Harry would always sneak out while everyone was awake and eventually he would drag Ron with him.
Hermione's change over time is very unusual especially if you saw how she was and how she ends up. Like and said in the previous paragraph is how she starts and now I am talking about how she is based on the end of Chamber of Secrets. I think that her curious side was awakened and Harry did the waking up. What I see is once Hermione knows about something but not all about she will want to find out either by going to the library or going to the real thing.
I actually see a chain. She goes to the library then investigates. I basically see Harry Potter as a mystery action/adventure because I think that in the 2 books they discover a secret about Hogwarts and then there is a battle. That is what I think.

Throne of fire Thoughts 3
I just finished Throne of Fire and I would like to say that I enjoyed it. The reason I enjoyed it because combined comedy, action, and adventure into one. I liked how the ending was a cliffhanger so that they have to make another book. What was interesting to me was Sadie love life believe or not. The reason I say this is because she is never sure who she likes or wants to start a relationship with. She is always conflicted.
What she is conflicted about is whether to form a relationship with Walt or Anubis the god. I know it seems like a easy choice but she has feelings for both. Anubis is a boy that she is very attracted to but he doesn't think that there will be anything between them. Walt is a whole different story because he likes Sadie a lot a Sadie really likes him but the only problem with Walt is that he is cursed and the more he does magic the closer he is to death. That interesting thing is that Walt wanted Anubis to help him with his curse.
I personally would say that Walt is the better choice for her. The reason I say this is because Walt is more relatable to her because number 1 he is human and number 2 he feels the say way about Sadie as Sadie feels about him. Anubis knows that there can't be anything between them because it is not his place to have a relationship with Sadie. That is why I think that Walt is the better choice.

Throne of fire Thoughts 2
Zia Rashid. The girl that Carter loves. At least that is what I think is in a pool of emotions right now. The reason I say this is because she just woke up from a very deep sleep and she kept on having these dreams about her village being destroyed. I think these dreams were caused by Apophis who is the major villain in the story. When she wakes up she is very confused about where she is and what is happening. It is very hard to explain but I am doing my best right now. So she is conflicted about choosing Carter and Sadie's side or Desjardin who is Chief Lector. The reason this important is because before Zia entered her deep sleep Desjardin on her mentor's side. That can make it confusing. It basically is like you siding with your boyfriend or your uncle. That is a hard choice.
I can relate to this myself. I know the feeling of being completely clueless and not knowing what to do. I know my example is not as dramatic or important as the one in the book but I still think it is a pretty good example. It is basically like when you are absent from school for a long period of time and when you come back you have no idea what is going on. When this happens I feel like I have entered a whole new world where I am a complete stranger. This is not a world that you would enjoy being in and you know it.
Now about the dream that she kept on having, I personally think that it was a nightmare. Imagine seeing your home destroyed over and over again. Just a repeated image of your family being killed over and over again. That is not just a prison. That is the prison of emotionally pain and physical pain. That is horrible in my opinion . If I were Zia I would have had a hard time recuperating from that. I don't how she came out of it like that.

Throne of fire Thoughts
While I was reading I noticed something that was very unusually to me. What I noticed was that Sadie and Carter who are brother and sister actually act like it. The reason I say that is because they live most of their lives apart from each other until recently. I would expect them to be treating each other like complete strangers right now. No matter who it is your mom, dad, brother, or sister. If you are away from them for 90
% of your life I think you would be treating them like complete strangers.
One of my friends can relate to this because he is always telling me that his dad was not involved in his life for most of his life. Whenever his dad comes over to his house, my friend tells me that he sees his dad as a complete stranger when he comes over. I don't blame him because when you don't see someone or meet someone who is part of your family for a big part of your life it messes with your emotions and your state of mind. That isn't good for your health.
Back to the story Sadie and Carter should have a harder time getting along than usually siblings. What I thought was unrealistic was that they started to get along so fast. I guess there is one thing I am looking at in the wrong way. The reason I say that is because it was either they get along or die basically. When you are in life or death situations you have to do pretty unusually things like they did. Basically they adapted to the situation that they were in and won the battle of adapting to something like that. That is a Incredible feat and challenged that they overcame.
