Yeah, I don't think so...
If you think about it, the people of Gryffindor are only known to be brave, not good. Even though he did something wrong in his crimes and his decision to join Voldemort, in many ways, it was a brave act.
He's a lot of things, but he's not a coward. Ultimately, that's what got Lily and James. They thought they knew that everyone else knew he would be too big a coward to be entrusted with that kind of a secret.
I also think there was a point to having him in Gryffindor, but becoming a follower of Voldemort, and that point is bookended by what happened in HBP. The Sorting Hat is a powerful magical tool, but it is not foolproof, and any type of person can make good or bad decisions. Pettigrew was in Gryffindor because the Sorting Hat DID see the latent bravery in him (who would have thought Neville would be brave, until OotP???). He used the bravery he had in him in the wrong way.
The "bookend" I referred to was Slughorn. He was in Slytherin. He is not a really likeable character. There is absolutely a self-serving side to him that is hard to get past, but when it comes right down to it, he's one of the "good guys".
It just goes to show: even personality doesn't determine who we are. Our decisions do. Pettigrew belonged in Gryffindor. He just turned out to be a Gryffindor who made bad decisions. |

Ah . . . lets see.
All the books in first edition North American format (Hee! First Eddies) Quidditch Through the Ages Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them (LOVE the scribbled notes in this one) Spiral Notebook with black paper inside with a green shiny gel pen Bookmark (metal, picture of HP on it) Snow globe with Harry doing the challenge with the keys Mug of the Mirror of Erised Key chain Knitted myself a gryffindor scarf (red and yellow look so good together with my black peacoat) Some sticker packs Bookends - Harry crawling through the entrance to his house and Hermione and Ron waiting exhausted on the other side All the movies that are able to be bought Glowing HP pen (glows blue)
Thats about it - most of the commercial merchandise was bought for me for christmases from my mom and dad - I have like a Harry Potter "shrine" in my bedroom where all this stuff stays.
Huzza! Harry Potter! |

I wish life was a one big adventure, a fairy tale with happy ending... well, it's not, Harry's world is not perfect either but I hope the 7th book ends like in the fairy tale (partly at least ).
