I liked this book for a few reasons:

1. This book had all of my favorite characters in it, so that made it squee worthy.

2. I'm not gonna lie and say that I don't get a kick out of Harry's angsty side and his capslock rage, I <3 it.

3. I loved the whole godfather/godson relationship between Harry and Sirius. I cried when I saw the first image out of Harry and Sirius hugging in OotP.

4. Who doesn't like a little action in their books? The battle at the Department of Mysteries was awesome.

I love the book but I didn't like that the Order members get romped(beaten up) by the death eaters. In the movie they fight quite well and I preferred that.

I agree, they made it more realistic in the movie.

i have been reading all of the Harry Potter books in order and so far this is my favorite one and im only half way done with the book.

i like it because:

1. you learn more about harry and voldemort

2. you get the feeling that you just want harry to use the avada kadavera curse on umbridge (lol)

3. sirius is cool

Kind of an odd place to start reading the Harry Potter books, but there's much to love from this book, a lot of it circling around the madness of the Ministry trying to take over Hogwarts. I liked how both were starting to square off and how the Ministry sent in Umbridge to cause a heck of a ruckus, it was a very entertaining book.

This one is my least favorite of the 7 books. The first half was a total bore in my opinion. Also it really sucks that Serius had to die. He was a good character. I was also expecting to see more of Voldemort, but he is only in like the last chapter.

The book started getting good when they started Dumbledore's Army though.

it got far more serious than the previous ones, it was more intense and more real

even though it isnt my fave book, it has one of my fave chapters in the whole hp series, the one where dumble tells harry the prophecy, i've read it 20 times at least

This is my FAVOURITE Harry Potter book because it has that great chase scene near the end with Harry, his friends and the death eaters, It has the big battle between Dumbledore and Voldermort that was portrayed greatly in the movie, we got to see SIRIUS again Very Happy and because it was the longest book. Usually I don't like 700+ paged books but this was an exception Wink

Because it was such a long and good series, I loved the tricks and turns to it, like the Chamber of Secrets, the diary made me heeps more interested, and the Half Blood Prince, how Snape was it? And the war made it just great and bloody wonderful, its a great series.

I absolutely love this book because

1. It was long and detailed

2. Dumbledore's Army was great to read

3. The whole Ron and Hermione bickering

4. Harry's teenage angst

5. Sirius' past and present stories

6. We get to meet so many new characters from the Order of the Pheonix

7. Luna Lovegood; love this odd character

I really like Order of the Phoenix because of its longness and because of how much action and exciting parts in it. I liked the story line and i loved the plot line also. The ending was great, even though Sirius dies. I just thought over all that it was a great and fantastic book. One of the best works.
