Summary

Only one chapter this week, but it's a doozy! Harry takes up a new extracurricular activity (it's demon-fighting). Hermione needs to learn whatever spell keeps your backpack from splitting open because you've stuffed too many textbooks in. Oliver Wood needs to CHILL OUT a little bit. Quidditch turns out to be a brilliant joke. And there's a rat murder. Newsletter: tinyletter.com/quibblerpodcast
