Yes,it was =( The clever thing that Rowling did, was throughout the books,she built up our hatred for Snape until the point where it was fit to burst. However, when we find out what he experienced during his childhood and his years at Hogwarts,we manage to push that hatred aside and feel great sympathy for him. I was nearly brought to tears when I read about his relationship with Lily,the way that it's described in is extremely clever ;)
it's ok if 你 don't think it's sad, but we will respect 你 更多 and you'll get flamed alot less if 你 actually read the story, rather than listening to all the spoilers, coz people 编辑 without realizing.
When I first heard about it, I thought it was't really that sad but I felt kinda sympathetic towards Snape. When I read the book, I cried so much! There's a difference between hearing it and 阅读 it, because when 你 hear it, 你 don't really get all the emotion.
