He mainly spent them reading his new books. His textbooks were all very interesting, although he didn’t really understand half of what they were talking about; he suspected that would come in the classroom. Magic for the Muggleborn taught him lots of basic things about magical life, but from the examples they used, he suspected the author had never been around Muggles for more than ten minutes at time. Hogwarts: A History was a dry book on an interesting subject; Harry skimmed most of it, but it only made him more excited for term to start. The Ministry of Magnates was an informative, scathing, outrageous, and hilarious critique of magical government and the people in it; if half the things in it were true, it was no wonder the author had adopted the pseudonym "The Wizard of Oz", because someone would surely have hunted him down otherwise. The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts was fascinating, but when he got to the end and discovered that Dumbledore had taken him from Godric’s Hollow to a secret wing of Hogwarts for intensive magical training, he was left wondering how much of what he’d just read was actually true. Nevertheless, he had learned from the book that he was probably sneaking out every morning under an Invisibility Cloak.
