Date read: 24 June - 12 July 2017
Length: 768 pages
Harry returns to Hogwarts for his sixth year where he is given a copy of Advanced Potion Making that once belonged to the Half-Blood Prince. Professor Snape is finally the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, with a new teacher; Professor Slughorn taking over Potions. Harry receives special lessons from Dumbledore this year, and these are illuminating. Harry will soon have to face his most ultimate challenge yet, but can he prepare enough?
During Dumbledore's lessons, we learn some history of Lord Voldemort; who his parents were, the circumstances of his upbringing, his first days at Hogwarts and growing into adulthood. It's quite interesting to get some insight to the Dark Lord.
Malfoy is up to something and Harry is determined to find out what. It's not until the very end of the book that you find out what he's up to. I won't say much here, but I will say this; DUMBLEDORE!! :( :(
Some romance goes on this year, Harry and Ginny finally see eye to eye about each other. It took a while but we knew it happened in the end! Ron gives them his blessing and has a rough ending with his relationship with Lavender.
And finally, after all these years, Professor Snape finally lands his dream job of Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. But whose side is he on? Maybe Harry was right all along?
I can't wait to read the next one. Best series I've read in a while.
