What was interesting to me also was in the follow up scene where he went back to Gryffindor an was explaining what happened, Hermione was very, "omg you could've killed him, will you put that book away now, plz?" and Ginny defended Harry saying it was justified and Malfoy got what he deserved. Harry was initially pleased with Ginny's defense, but as it went on, he started wondering why Ginny was fighting with Hermione over this and even thought 'hey, aren't they friends?'
I really enjoyed that part of the book and how it threw Harry into this other frame of mind and you're right, he did put off thinking about it or dealing with it for a bit after that. Which was a pretty bad time to ignore Draco, as obviously it steeled him to do what he needed to :)
