Hermione had exhausted the library at Grimmauld, had taken a trip to Hogwarts to utilize the restricted section, but she wasn’t learning anything new about her bond with the boys. She thought about seeing if she could gain access to the Malfoy Manor library, but her quest for knowledge didn’t outweigh her apprehension at returning to the site of her torture. At any rate, she wasn’t willing to call in a favor with Kingsley for this, at least not so soon after he had granted Draco permission to fetch her birthday presents.
