Harry has yet again spent the summer holidays at the Dursleys'. He has had plenty to think about, though - from the death of his beloved godfather Sirius Black, to the terrifying chase through the Ministry of Magic by the Death Eaters, to the fierce duel he witnessed between Professor Dumbledore and Lord Voldemort.

It is the middle of the summer, but there is an unseasonal mist pressing against the windowpanes. Harry is waiting nervously for a visit from Professor Dumbledore himself. He can't quite believe that Professor Dumbledore will actually appear at the Dursleys' of all places.

Why is the Professor coming to visit him now? What is it that cannot wait until Harry returns to Hogwarts in a few weeks' time?

Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts has already got off to an unusual start, as the worlds of Muggle and magic start to intertwine.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling

Harry is now waiting for a visit from his principal Dumbledore before a few weeks before term starts and thinking about the hard times he's been through last year. Now the wizard government believes that You-Know Who is back and Harry notices that the followers of You-Know-Who are causing trouble between their worlds...

This book continues the journey of Harry Potter and is the second last book of the series. Don't worry Harry Potter fans, you're almost there!

I love reading about Voldemort's (aka Tom Riddle) past. But it has a really sad ending. :(

The most greatest book I have ever read. It is very sad towards the end, that had me shed tears, but nonetheless it was awesome! It's clear to everyone that Voldemort's back and Harry (and everyone else) does not need to be under the wrath of Umbridge anymore! When Harry learns more about Voldemort, the more ways he has to destroy him!
