People reading this are probably thinking, 'What? "Harry Potter" is nothing like "Romeo and Juliet".' Yet if that were true, then why would I be writing a blog about it?
Forbidden love. It appears everywhere, including in "Harry Potter". Voldemort's parents, two star-crossed lovers that lose their lives, are JK Rowling's Romeo and Juliet. One a pure-blood witch, the other a mere muggle that can have any girl he wishes. Her parents hate muggles, his don't even know magic-folk exist, but neither would have chosen this for their child. Their love was secret. No one else knew until it was too late and their child was dead. But even their child's death could not stop her family from hating muggles.
The only difference is, Juliet couldn't give Romeo a love potion to make him love her.
