"You said, at the end of last term, you were going to tell me 
everything," said Harry. It was hard to keep a note of accusation from 
his voice. "Sir", he added - p.197

Alla:

Yeah, this is one of the reasons why I was not terribly surprised by DH 
Dumbledore. After OOP I was actually foolish enough to think that 
Dumbledore did tell Harry everything, that the mess he made (IMO of 
course) because of keeping secrets from Harry actually taught him 
something. I mean, I thought that there are surprises along the way, 
but not about why Voldemort wants to kill Harry. Little did I know, 
lol. But I learned my lesson and after HBP even though I did not know 
what else to follow, I certainly did not believe that Dumbledore told 
him everything.


"And it doesn't hurt that you've grown about a foot over the summer 
either," Hermione finished, ignoring Ron.
"I'm tall," said Ron inconsequentially" - p.219


Alla:

I was complaining a lot about romance in HBP before, but surprisingly I 
so far find myself enjoying those light hearted moments a whole lot.


"On the other hand, the Prince had proved to be more effective teacher 
than Snape so far" - p.239

Alla:

Right.


"Professor," said Harry after a short pause, "did professor McGonagall 
tell you what I told her after Katie got hurt? About Draco Malfoy?"
"She told me of your suspicions,yes" said Dumbledore.
"And do you -?"
"I shall take all appropriate measures to investigate anyone who might 
have hand in Katie's accident," said Dumbledore. "But what concerns me 
now, Harry is our lesson" - p.260


Alla:

That is why I was not impressed by Dumbledore's saving Malfoy. Because 
he did not appear to me to be too concerned about anybody else.
