my summer

Mr Rosier had me work with a tutor all summer again, but this summer it was less writing and more magic.

I'm better at Transfiguration than I was before. And Charms. The main thing Mr Larson (the tutor) wanted me working on was Dark Arts, though. Even though I didn't know if I'd be selected to study it. Mr Rosier said that was fine, I could study it on my own regardless but he had a feeling I'd get in. And I did! I've read the textbook but mostly I worked through some supplementary books Mr Larson ordered for me. There's one book that's just called 'Will and Belief' that's really written for Gryffindors. I don't know if anyone else in Gryffindor this year is starting Dark Arts, but if anyone is they should definitely read it. Let me know and I can get you a copy, though probably not before school starts.

I saw Dean a few times and I went to Draco's party but other than that I pretty much spent the summer with Mr Rosier and Mr Larson.

I can't wait to have Mr Lestrange for Defense! That's brilliant, that is. Does anyone know if they've picked a new Head of House for Gryffindor, what with Lockhart not coming back?

You're not the only one - you'll never guess who else is taking it. Bundy! Can you imagine? Parvati found out from Midgen, who had it from Gemma Bundy in Hufflepuff.

Bundy! I mean, I suppose she can't be too dreadful or Miss Professor Carrow would never have let her in. Still. It'll be an interesting mix and all, I suppose.

I've got a load of books for History Club this year. If you want to keep doing it, I mean. What are your other classes? I don't suppose you're doing Runes or Arithmancy?
