I always wished that Ginny's experiences with Tom Riddle had been expanded on and discussed more in the books. I think Ginny had tons of potential and I would have been way more interested in her and her relationship with Harry if the Riddle thing had been more centrally incorporated into her character.

I agree. It's actually given me a lot of headcanon fuel. For example I see Ginny as being something of an atoner afterward and she gets so into things like the DA and stuff because she wants to learn to defend herself and never be taken advantage of again, and she still has a hard time forgiving herself for it for the longest time, and probably only talks about it with a few people.

Ginny is also stubborn and due to her background being the youngest girl in a family full of brothers, who probably wants to be seen as one of them and not as "the girl" she is 'tough' about things. To some degree she tries to exude an image of a tough girl who can deal with anything.

Really all these headcanons have made her a more interesting character in my mind.

Yes, exactly! Probably the part of the books I liked her most in was during Order of the Phoenix, when she tells Harry to get over himself because she knew what being possessed felt like a lot better than he did, and understood his problems in a way that Ron and Hermione just couldn't because they hadn't had that experience.

Yessssssssssssss omg.

Whenever people are all "in HBP she got all spunky out of nowhere" I always point to that, and the part in the fourth book where she criticized Harry and Ron for being really nasty about girls because they couldn't get a date for the Yule Ball. It was always there if you pay attention.

ayrt

I understand the complaints to some extent, because the book didn't really connect her tough behavior to her experiences, no one ever says or thinks about the connection and it's never really unmistakably implied, it's just kinda...there. But yeah, it doesn't take a whole lot of pondering and analysis to make this connection -- fans have written character meta and analysis based on much less obvious connections between some characters' character traits.
