I'm kinda getting tired of hearing about Dumbeldore being the best, when he hasn't done a single thing so far. His Phoenix (my favorite mythological creature) has already done more than he has. At first I did think that Slytherin's heir might be Voldemort, but in the back of my mind I was also thinking, “I get a feeling it might be Percy... But maybe that's too boring so maybe there'll be a twist and Ginny might be the one.” After chapter 15 I was convinced it was Percy so I was genuinely surprised to know that it was actually Tom Riddle, and the fact that he was Voldemort's 16 year old self.Overall I liked the book a lot. I do think the second half was way better than the first half, as things started moving faster. I don't think it was as good as the first book but it's still a solid 4.5/5 for me.
