It, along with Half-Blood Prince, is among my favorite books. Order of the Phoenix is one of the best in the series. The character who I was annoyed with was Hermione, not Harry. I was on Harry's side throughout the book. He was right, and I would have done the same thing. I found that book to be great because of how the school all united against Umbridge -- it was cool.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03057411898960339344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481406859587493585.post-87032356530156121802011-02-22T10:03:29.680-05:002011-02-22T10:03:29.680-05:00Ruth - Unfortunately, unlike you I don’t have the ...Ruth - Unfortunately, unlike you I don’t have the French/German/Czech covers!Melissa (Avid Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02119628715475021774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481406859587493585.post-41135389956036989262011-02-21T10:17:41.026-05:002011-02-21T10:17:41.026-05:00harry potter!! love that you added the british boo...harry potter!! love that you added the british book covers :) i just finished the last book! love them....obviously :)Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03725944396169310542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481406859587493585.post-3797879009410308562011-02-20T16:28:06.568-05:002011-02-20T16:28:06.568-05:00Darlyn - It's been so much fun re-reading the ...Darlyn - It's been so much fun re-reading the early books for the first time since finishing the series. There's so much foreshadowing! <br /><br />Jillian - Mine too, definitely. I wanted to tell Harry to stop whining in the 5th book. But, like you, I still love them. <br /><br />Teacher/Learner - I can't wait to hear what you think of the final 4. <br /><br />Amanda - You probably read it in french though, which is much more impressive!Melissa (Avid Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02119628715475021774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481406859587493585.post-25557062062040579832011-02-20T11:31:57.119-05:002011-02-20T11:31:57.119-05:00I just finished rereading this too. :)I just finished rereading this too. :)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026099426503180472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481406859587493585.post-17665411818322300112011-02-19T14:17:45.338-05:002011-02-19T14:17:45.338-05:00I actually liked the 2nd book (very close to the 1...I actually liked the 2nd book (very close to the 1st in order of favourites) but then again, I've only read the first 3 books of the series.

I got to say Chamber of Secrets and Order of the Pheonix were my least favorites, but regardless, I still love them. By the way, great idea to put the things you forgot about the books! I always reread these and discover something new almost every single time.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629286727932554109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481406859587493585.post-11022631480314441762011-02-19T03:05:22.911-05:002011-02-19T03:05:22.911-05:00Your review reminded me how much I love this book....Your review reminded me how much I love this book. I reread it last year, and intend to reread the other five books in the series before seeing the 2nd part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.<br /><br />I was also amazed by how JK Rowling planned everything. Even in the first book, there are tiny details that foreshadow the events in later books. :)Darlyn (Your Move, Dickens)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00979296421309409564noreply@blogger.com
