Many teenagers think in extremes, and would most definitely do things like this. I think that the main problem that may arise with her character is if you think she's supposed to be viewed as a role-model, and that everything she does is something you should approve of. Since I don't think this is the case, I had no real trouble with her; when I thought she was wrong, I didn't feel as if I was reading against the text.
Many people feel the same about Harry - while I see him as a well-rounded character with flaws as well as good points, other people think we have to see him as always being in the right since he's the main character. I think they're wrong, of course, and that they're railing against a textual message that isn't even there.
But back to Hermione; I didn't like her that much either, since I usually don't care much for characters like that. I did feel that her being a bit of a know-it-all was written as a flaw when she doesn't keep it under control. The problem is also that we don't know what she thinks most of the time, since the books are told from Harry's POV, and we're only told how he sees her react.
Also, I've always wondered: why does everyone assume that Marietta was disfigured for life? it doesn't say she was in canon, you know.
Well, to be fair, I think every single romance was handled like crap in the books. Tonks/Lupin, anyone?
It was sudden, but they were also minor characters. It still should have been done better, but I'm more forgiving of glossing over the lives of characters that are less important. The main character should at least be written believably.
And I think the failed attempt at a relationship between Harry and Cho was written really well; it was exactly like most romances play out at that age. It rang very true. Too bad she didn't succeed with the relationship that was supposed to be the "real" one...
