+222 Harry Potter is one of those few books where you really care for all of the characters, no matter how evil or annoying they are. You even have a twisted sort of affection for people like Bellatrix and Lockhart, amirite?

more like an overwhelming love for Bellatrix...

Except for Umbridge. Fuck her.

I agree. I think Umbridge is the only character that I absolutely hate. She's just so evil for no reason whatsoever. I don't even hate Voldemort as much as I hate her.

I agree! I hated Lockhart and Umbridge overwhelmingly more than Voldemort.

Bellatrix is psychologically fascinating. There's definitely a backstory there.

I think you certainly become invested or interested in the characters moreso than in other books. Like Ariodante said, Bellatrix is fascinating and it'd be interesting to know more about her story. But I can safely say I have no affection for Bellatrix.
