What would happen in this story of Harry's another adventure? - Happy Reading!

The book has three main storylines that keep us readers guessing throughout. One is the relationship and mission assigned to Draco Malfoy—and Snape’s possible involvement in it. Two is the textbook that Harry Potter happens upon in his potions class, an old textbook filled with handwritten notes and signed by “The Half-Blood Prince.” And Three is the mentor-mentee relationship between Dumbledore and Potter that involves liberal use of the pensive and sneak-peeks into the past as they each seek to unravel the mystery that is Lord Voldemort.

good book for those who read the other harry potter books. sad ending other than that 8 out of ten

It’s really cool after you get past the beginning

I love to read Harry Potter. Get all of the books if you can.😍

I decided to read this book when my parents played the audio book in the car. I was instantly hooked. Have read around 4 times. One of the worst mistakes someone can make in the book world is not reading the Harry Potter series

I have read all of the Harry Potter books. When I was done with the books. I felt like the Harry Potter characters were my friends. I read the books a lot

I think J.K Rowling should deserve a round of applause for writing this spectacular masterpiece! Now, another one for the Golden Trio!

Honestly dumbledore seemed so wise and worth saving. Like after book five everything got sad. RIP. Hey have any of you guys heard the theme from the movie leaving hogwarts. Isn't it a great song. Makes you feel a little sad but then you feel like there's happines to come. This is my favorite book its so good because it shows you the things you must face to win. Good day to you all.

The Lightning Struck Tower. Peace with you Dumbledore.
