Review: Harry's summer has been full of misfortune, and it seems something has been trying to keep Harry from getting to Hogwarts. That's when Harry meets Dobby, the Malfoy's house elf/ slave. Dobby warns Harry not to go back because of dangers, and admits he is the reason Harry has been through all theis trouble. When Harry gets to Hogwarts, people start getting weary because of Harry's ability to talk to snakes. This isn't any better because of these petrified students. then harry finds out what is happening.

Favorite quotation: "-STEALING THE CAR, I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN SURPRISED IF THEY'D EXPELLED YOU, YOU WAIT TILL I GET HOLD OF YOU, I DON'T SUPPOSE YOU STOPPED TO THINK WHAT YOUR FATHER AND I WENT THROUGH WHEN WE SAW IT WAS GONE...LETTER FROM DUMBLEDORE LAST NIGHT, I THOUGHT YOUR FATHER WOULD DIE OF SHAME, WE DIDN'T BRING YOU UP TO BEHAVE LIKE THIS, YOU AND HARRY COULD BOTH HAVE DIED ... ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED--YOUR FATHER'S FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK, IT'S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT, AND IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE WE'LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT BACK HOME!" Pg. 88
