Teaser Tuesdays #59!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 
Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!


Ok, so I'm re-reading the Harry Potter series, and it's been quite a while since I've been participating in this meme, so I decided to share teasers from both Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (which I finished yesterday), and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (which I'm reading now). And yeah, they'll be longer then usual ;)


"‘Professor Severus Snape, master of this school, commands you to yield the information you conceal!’ Snape said, hitting the map with his wand.
...
‘Mr Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people’s business.’
...
‘Mr Prongs agrees with Mr Moony, and would like to add that Professor Snape is an ugly git.’
...
‘Mr Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that an idiot like that ever became a Professor.’
...
‘Mr Wormtail bids Professor Snape good day, and advises him to wash his hair, the slimeball.’"


"The police had never read an odder report. A team of doctors had examined the bodies, and had concluded that none of the Riddles had been poisoned, stabbed, shot, strangled, suffocated or (as far as they could tell) harmed at all. In fact, the report continued, in a tone of unmistakable bewilderment, the Riddles all appeared to be in perfect health – apart from the fact that they were all dead. The doctors did note (as though determined to find something wrong with the bodies) that each of the Riddles had a look of terror upon his or her face – but as the frustrated police said, whoever heard of three people being frightened to death?"
