Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince – J.K. Rowling

After a 3 month break (thanks mostly to Angelina not giving me the next book), I returned to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter with Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth and penultimate entry in the series.  In this installment, Harry finds an old potions book with shortcuts and spells added by the so-called Half Blood Prince.  Meanwhile, Dumbledore tries to track down bits of Voldemort’s soul before falling to the Death Eaters.

The series takes a darker turn here, as Harry and his classmates come closer to adulthood and learn they will need to face the coming battles without their headmaster.  There is one more book in the series, which I hope to finish by the end of the year.  Assuming, of course, that Angelina cooperates.
