    There was a lengthy silence after this piece of information, and Harry was more than happy to let his friends digest it. He sat back, eyes flicking every so often to the Restricted Section, and then to the library entrance. They would, it seemed, have to wait until next year to try and get into the Restricted Section with the rate things were currently progressing. This would perhaps be to their advantage – they would be more proficient in magic and would have a better idea of what spells they were interested in learning.
