Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (157-210)

On their way back to the dorms, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and other students notice that the Fat Lady who guards their passage is missing and that the portrait she lives in is slashed. Percy, Head Boy and older brother of Ron, runs to find Dumbeldore. They go on a wild goose chase to find her, spotting her four floors down by Divination.
Later, Harry begins practicing with Professor Lupin on how to stop a Dementor. They use a Boggart which take the shape of one. Hoever, everytime it takes shape, Harry passes out. He hears the sounds of his parents fighting for their life against Voldemort and wakes up weak and tired.
Next, third years and above take a trip to Hogsmeade (a town full of wizardry shops from candy stores to butterbeer bars), but Harry can't go because you need a guardian to sign a permission slip. To help out his brother's friend, Fred and George (Ron's older twin brothers) give Harry the Maurder's Map. It shows everyone's move, every day, in any place. It also has secret passages to in and out of Hogwarts, one being Hogsmeade. Harry takes it and meets Ron and Hermione; they go to the butterbeer bar. Harry ends up under the table when Professor McGonnal and Hagrid come into the bar. They begin talking about how Sirius used to be Harry's parents best friend, and how he betrayed them--causing their death.

Respone: JK Rowling is a beast, especially in "Maurders Map" chapter. The story about Harry's parents and Sirius Black is awesome, creepy, and sad all in one. LOVE THESE BOOOKSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
