Harry Potter is in his 6th year at Hogwarts and the Headmaster is acting very different indeed. He takes Harry along with him on a trip over the summer to try and pursuade an old teacher to come back and teach. He also wants Harry to come to his office in the evenings to have privates lessons that go over parts of the Dark Lords life. Among this Harry has a new crush and Ron and Hermione have a newfound relationship. And Harry will lose the only person who made him feel safe even though the Dark Lord was back and be left on his own to fight the Dark Lord.

J.K. Rowling has done it again in creating another unforgettable Harry Potter book. This time around, the character Dumbledore gets some gently sarcastic comments as he shows off his intelligent wit. The section where he visits Harry's aunt & uncle are remarkably funny.
The book is a definite page-turner, which you won't be able to put down. if you love the Harry Potter series than you can't afford to miss this book! One word of caution: do not skip to the end or let anybody ruin the ending for you!

I literally couldn't put it down. I was so unraptures that I read it in one day!! I waited in line for three to four hours waiting to by my copy. I still where the band that came with it.

I thought this book was J.K.Rowlings best and darkest yet. She really let us have an in-depth view on Voldemort's past. I just wish that a certain someone didn't have to die.

One question that is still on my mind is "Who exactly is the Grey Lady?"

This book isby far the best book i have ever read!! i (L) it best out of all the harry potter books, even though i am in love with all of them. The movies just make tem so much more real. i recoment this book to everyone but dont read it until you have rad the other 5 because it wont make sense. JK Rowling is an absolute legend and such a talented writer. i wish that my half blooded prince book would go on forever and ill be really sad when iv read the final book in the series uv read each book at least 4 times!!!

I really thought this book was great. The plot line was a little slow in the beginning but this book flowed much better then the others. I also liked the indepth look into hary's more personal life. Mainly his love life. The only thing that could have made this better was for there to be more action in the begining.

of course, im partial, i love harry potter. but i think that it is by far the best book ive read in some time, closely riveled by eldest(inheratince triolgy) of course, this is about the half blood price, so on we go. this book is not slow at all to start out with, for you readers that have some difficulty with slow beginings. it makes you question many things that you have always thought to be set in stone, or at least true(because if dumbledore trusts it you should to, right?). it leads you through another year at hogwarts, with mysteries practicly around every corner(even through a corrider several(ok many)times) and surprises as well. with a new minister of magic, things are a little unsteady in the ministry of magic. and, of course, a most tragic demise of a great character at the end, which made me cry for almost an hour straight. of course, its also very infuriatingly nieve of this person as well, and the person who did it?!??? hmmm how to say this...he is by far the worst thing you can possibly think of. (with the exeption of you-know-who...)However, it does leave some very intresting questions at the end, allowing plenty of time for your mind to wander. ...very intresting overall, i would give it a 8 out of 5 if i could.

ages: probably 7-150, nearly any age.

Harry has finally got the ministry on his side, but it doesn't mean things are getting normal(well, as normal as things could possibly get when you can do magic and travel through fire). Harry, though dosen't have any trouble getting through potions though because of a new teacher, and an old schoolbook that used to belong to someone who called themself "The Half-Blood Prince"! But it is getting even better than ever, and sadder because of the death of OOOOOPPS. Sorry there can't give it away so I guess you'll have to read it to find out.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J. K. Rowling is a very interesting book. After Harry unexpectedly gets to take 6th year Potions and doesn't have the book for the class, he starts taking orders from one he borrows from school. Then things take a turn for the worse. First he learns dark spells from the book and he casts them on other students. Then someone Harry is very close to is killed.

If you liked the other five Harry Potter books, you will probably like this one, too.
