    Summary

    Harry wasn’t able to get a good look in the box until after the Quidditch Cup fiasco, and has still yet to have a moment alone with Ron and Hermione to mention it. Even now, on the train, Neville, Ginny and Luna are with them. They’re his friends too, yes, but this is about his mum, and Ron and Hermione are his best friends. He wants to tell them alone. Together. He wants them to know. To help him. He can’t figure it out without them, that’s for damn sure.

    And there is plenty to figure out. Starting with that book.

    Or,

    During the summer before fourth year, Harry happens across a box of his mother’s things in the Dursley’s attic. With it is a warded book, Lily’s diary. Together with Ron, Hermione and their friends, Harry works to unlock the book, and uncover the secrets hidden between its pages.

    A story about a dead woman’s diary, a complicated, bitter man living deep in denial, a vulnerable boy and his found family, and a bathroom on the second floor of Hogwarts.

    Or,

    Harry, Hermione and Ron exist. Chaos ensures.
