Thinking For Herself

In her fifth year at Hogwarts, Millicent Bulstrode starts doing what she feels is right, not following her friends.

Grubbly-Plank is a welcome surprise, Umbridge a more worrying one – and who else has something to teach Millicent Bulstrode?

After a quarrel with Pansy, Millicent refuses to go on the first Hogsmeade trip of the year. When all clubs are closed down, though, they have something to talk about.

Millicent just can't help herself – that tune of Draco's is so catchy, she's just got to sing along.

Millicent's hated her mother for years. Now she realises she was wrong to behave the way she did – and she's running out of time in which to apologise.

Millicent's mother passes away, and Millicent begins to look more critically at those around her.

Millicent receives her first-ever Valentine's card, and gets into a fight with Adrian. Meanwhile, the Death Eaters' escape gives her food for thought.

Millicent Bulstrode is asked to join the Inquisitorial Squad. Well, with the school descending into anarchy, someone has to keep the rules.

From pureblood matrons keen to ensnare widower Mr Bulstrode to a very determined admirer with designs on Millicent herself!

She hasn't been able to leave the Inquisitorial Squad, but Millicent has got a boyfriend. He's rather better than Vincent Crabbe, too.

Millicent's spent her fifth year questioning everything she thought she knew. Now she takes a stand at a critical moment.
