Most characters like Snape are hard to love but there is a sort of ambiguity – you can’t quite decide - something sad about him – lonely and it’s fascinating when you think he’s going to be the evil one-a-party from Voldemort obviously in the first book, then slowly you get this idea he’s not so bad after all.


JK Rowling: Yes but you shouldn’t think him too nice. It is worth keeping an eye on old Severus definitely!

Spoiler:

Yeah, the one thing that doesn't fit in is the Unbreakable Vow, unless Snape KNEW he was going to have to kill Dumbledore and do all of that so far in advance, which I doubt. Thats the only thing keeping me thinking that he may actually be evil...
