It's not that I find that exaggerated, because I know some people do go through that, it's that the writing didn't allow me to connect enough with Harry to feel it as the pain of someone I knew, as opposed to someone I'd just read about. The scene where Harry stumbles upon the mirror of Erised in the movie made me choke up, but I can't remember feeling that way when I read it. The fourth book, however, felt much more real to me in terms of emotions. If the series continues in that vein, I think I'll end up rating it much higher than I did after finishing the third book.
I also wanted to tell you that you seem like a very cool person. Hang in there! *hugs*
