A review by tuckeralmengor
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling

4.0

alternate title - Voldemort: A History

Seriously though, this is by far one of my favorite books in the Harry Potter series. It's probably #3 out of the seven books.

I enjoyed it so much because it was so info-dumpy. Now, info-dumpy books can be enjoyable if they're written well (this one was). I think the reason I, and many others, wasn't bored with this book is because, in spite of the fact that most of it was backstory, there was still a main plot and a main mystery that each Harry Potter book always features.

I also love that Dumbledore is so up close and personal in this book because as a I reader I look up to Dumbledore and Harry looks up to him to and there is just so much heartwarming looking upping.

There is one thing I want to note. If you've read the book (or if you know anything about Harry Potter) you know what I'm talking about. I am so sad. It hurts to read that scene and it hurts to think about it. much sad.

Overall, this book was very informative and, although some may not enjoy it as much as the others, it is definitely worth a read.
