Synopsis:

"It is the middle of summer, but there is an unseasonal mist pressing against the window panes. Harry Potter is waiting nervously in his bedroom at the Dursley's house in Privet Drive for a visit from Professor Dumbledore himself. One of the last times he saw the Headmaster was in a fierce one-to-one duel with Lord Voldemort, and Harry 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..." -blurb from the back of book  

First Line:

"It was nearing midnight and the Prime Minister was sitting alone in his office, reading a long memo that was slipping through his brain without leaving the slightest trace of meaning behind." 

Review:

My favorite of the Harry Potter books. This book is where the story between Harry and Lord Voldemort really kicks off. You learn the answers to some of the burning questions you've had since the start of the series. You learn a lot more about lots of the characters in this book, some of the things shocking and makes you question your thoughts/feelings towards them. This book is filled with the feels to its dramatic, frustrating, shocking, confusing, hilarious, and upsetting all rolled into one. The ending of this book leaves you in complete shock and disbelieve and leaves you wondering how the story will continue...
