Harry Potter: Order of the Phoenix (spoilers possible)

[Mike Olbinski]

Started reading the Harry Potter books about 3 months ago, and I love them! Zipped through the first four quickly, and just started on Order of the Phoenix when I left for Hawaii this last trip.

(spoilers possible)

I'm about halfway through and I just have to say, so far, this is just one of the best ones I've read so far. So much going on, and Harry teaching spells against Dark Arts is just awesome.

I'm loving them, and it's going to be a pain waiting for Book 6.

I just started reading them, too. I'm through the first 2 and just began the third (Prisoner of Azkaban). They're just okay, IMO. But, I can see why kids flip over them.

Well, the first two aren't very deep, but from Book 3 on, they get really good, darker, and there is an underlying plot that starts to be formed and told.

I love these books too! ALthough I'll have to say, Order of Phoenix was a little disappointing for me. It's still a very good book but I guess the long wait spoiled it for me. I can't really pinpoint why I was a little disappointed. I guess Harry came off very whiny in this book IMO but that's just me

this won't stop me from getting the next one though

Yeah, Harry annoyed me a lot, never listening to what people were telling him to do...you'd think he'd be smarter than that by now.
