" 'I have had it all tested for poison', he assured Harry, pouring most if the first bottle into one of Hagrid's bucket sized mugs and handing it to Hagrid. 'Had a house-elf taste every bottle after what happened to your friend Rupert.'
This is on page 454. You think she ment to put ruperts name or that she accidently put it there?
I noticed this the first time i read it, and it's also mentioned in another thread. But i'll still put my opinion in this thread.
Jk wouldn't put rupert instead of ron intentionally, because she knows we would speculate on it, and discuss it and we would all think its a mistake. I do not think she would write rupert, especially as rupert plays ron, and she knows this of corse. She herself sees rupert as ron, so it could be an easy mistake to make. Therefore i think it is actually a mistake.
