Review:
This book really begins the destiny for which Harry was born into. I love this book and I was glad to see other villains brought to light in this installment. It is a bit darker than the previous books. It still has our favorite characters though.
So many emotions were brought out to light for me in this book. I hated Umbridge and the detention scene. I thought the author did a great job of displaying the emotions of Harry and his friends. It is terrible to be old enough to know what is going on and young enough to be held out of the action.
Overall I think this is the book that starts tying the series together. It is a great read!
