Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince
hpWhere's Snape?
Here is a list of every mention made of Snape in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince as well as a couple of excerpts from the book. I am using the hardback edition of the book with the ISBN 0439784549 (you can find this number with the publishing information in the front of the book). I'd also like to mention that in some parts Snape is merely being talked about, not necessarily speaking himself.

hpExcerpts
snape"And through all this we are supposed to believe that Dumbledore has never suspected you?" asked Bellatrix. "He has no idea of your true allegiance, he trusts you implicitly still?"
snape"I have played my part well," said Snape. "And you overlook Dumbledore's greatest weakness: He has to believe the best of people. I spun him a tale of deepest remorse when I joined his staff, fresh from my Death Eater days, and he embraced me with open arms - though, as I say, never allowing me nearer the Dark Arts than he could help. Dumbledore has been a great wizard - oh yes, he has," (for Bellatrix had made a scathing noise), "the Dark Lord acknowledges it. I am pleased to say, however, that Dumbledore is growing old. The duel with the Dark Lord last month shook him. He has since sustained a serious injury beause his reactions are slower than they once were. But through all these years, he has never stopped trusting Severus Snape, and therein lies my great value to the Dark Lord." -p. 31
snapeSnape set off around the edge of the room, speaking now in a lower voice; the class craned their necks to keep him in view.
snape"The Dark Arts," said Snape, "are many, varied, ever-changing, and eternal. Fighting them is like fighting a many-headed monster, which, each time a neck is severed, sprouts a head even fiercer and cleverer than before. You are fight that which is unfixed, mutating, indestructible."
snapeHarry stared at Snape. It was surely one thing to respect the Dark Arts as a dangerous enemy, another to speak of them, as Snape was doing, with a loving caress in his voice? -pp. 177-178
snape"We've got a problem, Snape," said the lumpy Amycus, whose eyes and wand were fixed alike upon Dumbledore, "the boy doesn't seem able -"
snapeBut some else had spoken Snape's name, quite softly.
snape"Severus..."
snapeThe sound frightened Harry beyond anything he had experienced all evening. For the first time, Dumbledore was pleading.
snapeSnape said nothing, but walked forward and pushed Malfoy roughly out of the way. The three Death Eaters fell back without a word. Even the werewolf seemed cowed.
snapeSnape gazed for a moment at Dumbledore, and there was revulsion and hatred etched in the harsh lines of his face.
snape"Severus...please..."
snapeSnape raised his wand and pointed it directly at Dumbledore.
snape"Avada Kedavra!" -pp. 596-597
