Ginny Weasley Character Analysis

Ron's younger sister; she's a third-year in Gryffindor. She's had a crush on Harry since she first met him three years ago and blushes every time she sees him. She agrees to go to the Yule Ball with Neville so she has the chance to go (it's open to fourth years and higher, though younger students can attend if invited) and tries to stand up for Neville and Hermione when Ron and Harry make fun of them.
