  1. First of all would like to say I like your opening sentence very catchy. I liked how you used Harry's doubt as his strength in you paper. I couldn't agree with you more. It was also nice to get the brief background information on your character. I think that your thesis is very strong and can lead to a great paper. Are you going to give examples of Harry's obstacles in your paper? I think that would be a great idea to make a much more powerful statement. I really liked your beginning paragraph.
