the guardian

In a recent poll by The Guardian, most people chose Severus Snape. http://www.guardian.co.uk/childrens-books-site/2011/aug/30/snape-favourite-harry-potter-character Who is your favourite, and why? Disclaimer: opinions are only opinions, but they're fun when we accept that they're only opinions.
