Berit replies:

Would just like to point out that Harry didn't leave his books unread:
Quote: "'Thought you wouldn't open a book before coming, eh, Potter?'
Harry forced himself to keep looking straight into those cold eyes. 
He HAD looked through his books at the Dursleys', but did Snape 
expect him to remember everything in 'One Thousand Magical Herbs and 
Fungi'?" (PS p. 102 UK Ed).
