It's not that his father's patronus was a stag, it's because he was an Animagus that turned into a stag.
So...yeah. Not a sentence I thought I'd type.
This must be what going mad feels like.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Wow, I'd totally forgotten that tidbit.

I spent a lot of time reading Marauders-era fic.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
If I had millions of dollars, I'd pay for those girls to finish The Shoebox Project.

Which in turn is why Snape's patronus is so important.

Reason # 45923 why I wish they had waited until canon was completed before making the movies.

Because books.
I got through four paragraphs of this Wall Street Journal article on YA books and am so enraged I'm not going to finish it right now. I did glance at the sidebar of books they *can* recommend for young readers, and noticed how helpfully they split the list into books for boys and girls.
Did we go back to 1950 today and I missed it?

Hey. New board.
The article's pretty annoying, but I don't generally think that breaking YA books into separate lists for boys and girls is necessarily bad, though I certainly think there should be a third (larger) list for the crossovers. It's the rare boy who likes "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" (though we are a generally cool bunch).

I thought the big deal with Snape's patronus was that it's the same as Lily's...i.e that he loved Harry's mom SO MUCH that his patronus matched hers. Did i even read the same books as everyone else??

No, that's right.
