This is a reread.
This time round I found the topics touched in this book very up-to-date and found it comforting to see how Harry and his friends stand up for what they feel is right and meet the rising dark head on. 
This too is the book where adolescence kicks in really and hormones are found flaring and friendships have to be negotiated through all of this and more.
Again, I am gobsmacked with how spot on J.K. Rowling was in 2000 with fake news and the role public media has in offering always a distortion of what is actually happening/took place.
Again, I am shocked at the amount of trauma Harry is pelted through in this book and yet he seems by the end of it rather unscathed.
