Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Even Professor Dumbledore, headmaster of the school, has come under scrutiny by the Ministry of Magic, which refuses to officially acknowledge the terrifying truth that Voldemort is back. Gone is the wide-eyed innocent, the whiz kid of Sorcerer's Stone. Life isn't getting any easier for Harry Potter. Enter a particularly loathsome new character: the toadlike and simpering ("hem, hem") Dolores Umbridge, senior undersecretary to the Minister of Magic, who takes over the vacant position of Defense Against Dark Arts teacher--and in no time manages to become the High Inquisitor of Hogwarts, as well. Rowling's Harry Potter series follows the darkest year yet for our young wizard, who finds himself knocked down a peg or three after the events of last year. Readers, on the other hand,

Highly recommend I could go on and on about how talented Rowling is; she does an amazing job in developing her characters, plot, and setting. She has moments of humor, warmth and depth. And I LOVE how she developed Snape's character and answered all the questions about this enigmatic character in this final volume. A superb ending to an excellent series!. "Who doesn't like Harry Potter" according to Kcat. Who doesn't like Harry Potter? This is my favorite book of the series! We start to really see the layers of the characters and we see things that are extremely important later in the series! My favorite parts are between Severus and Sirius. I wont spoil it though for those who have yet to read it.Harry Potter has shaped a lot of people's lives. The series teaches lessons that many carry on long after finishing the books. Friendship, acceptance, the importance of knowledge, being level headed, don't judge a book by its cover, and courage are all things taught!. Michelle said Amazing story and amazing series. What an amazing story and an amazing series!!! I came in late to the Harry Potter fan club (just now reading the series) and all I have to say is: So while I was late to the party….what a party it was!!! What was I thinking? Not reading these!? A Sin! I have to say Rowling’s writing is amazing! I loved how she tied the series together. I also was quite in awe with the detail these books have and although I am heartbroken (Snape’s story line literally hurt me) this last book was amazing! There is nothing I can say to add to these reviews other than I
