Summary: Hp and the Order of the Pheonix, a Great Read!
Review: The latest installment of the Harry Potter Series was once again aquited to be another great book. The Story starts out a bit rocky but after a few chapters the story really takes "flight". Harry Potter who has now surpassed his 15th birthday is once again being troubled by not only the pains of adolescence but also with perturbed emotions of haunting dreams, and Surges of Pain in his Lightning shaped scar. For Harry has a strange reaccuring dream that involves a dark windowless corridor that ends in a mysterious door that Harry finds he wishes to enter.
The story quickly penetrates the reader like venom and has them on a rollercoaster of a tale that ends in a suprising nature(in my opinion). The book is a nonstop page turner and has all the Harry fans screaming for more!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: a dissapointment to the core
Review: I was dissapointed by this book tremendously. Half the time while I was reading it I didn't want to read on just because it was so depressing. It made me sad that nearly nothing uplifting happened to Harry. I also did not enjoy it to much because it was all so obvious. There was nothing really secretive about it. There was no real mystery that kept me wondering most of the time I was just bored. For an ordinary book it would have been ok, but for one in the Harry Potter series I was left with an unsatisfied feeling. I was also mad because she had written so much about the same thing over and over it just dragged. Maybe he next one wil be better but I definitly won't get my hopes up as much as I did for this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good..but
Review: It was hard to rate a book like this. I have read all the books so far, and I looked forward toward this one. As it says in the short summary: "richest installment yet of J. K. Rowlings seven-part series..." it is the richest. Maybe some of you haven't noticed but she's getting better at writing, and yes, the "plot is thickening", Harry Potter does have a dim future of sadness. But there will be more attempts to make his feelings about someone dieing easyer to coop with. There will be more of that broken mirror, and again, yes, Harry could of saved the person who died easily and that bothers me. Harry Potter will see more of Voldermolt and their Proph.something of other. And I can't wait for the next book, but otherwise you should really bye this book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A WONDERFUL, MAGNIFICENT,BRILLIANT YET- Not Rowlings best
Review: I finished this book 2 1/2 days later after its release. I loved it alot but thought that Rowling could have had a bit more cheerfulness inside. But I liked the way Harry got angry outburst which proved that he wasn't perfect (which many belive him to be). Also in the book we hear about Cho Chang, Harrys secret crush from the 4th book!!! I won't give anything away but they aren't as magnificent of a couple as you would think them to be! Also, the new DATDA teacher is simply HORRIBLE!!!!! I love the way Rowling describes her and could picture her perfectly. Hermione and Ron, I feel, are starting to grow apart from Harry. They are still "The 3 Musketeers" but fights start to become frequent and their differences (Hemione and Ron being prefects, ron not having 2 much money,studies) start to come between them. But I belive in the 6th book they will become wonderful friends again. I found the end sorta confusing. The chapter when Dumbledore tells Harry 2 sit down and he'll tell him "everything" wasn't as BIG as I thought it would be. I was thinking that maybe Harry might be Voldemorts brother or something but...thats not it. Percy turns "Un-Weasly" in this book.I think that hes 2 conceited that he thinks because he works for the minestry hes as important as Fudge himself. Also I love how they decide to teach theirselves the dark arts, which proves, even if it means getting expelled they are willing to do anything to learn-- AND get rid of Umpbridge. Also the Minestry of Magic, to me are the bad guys now. They seem to want to stop Dumbledore from wanting to free everyone of the Dark Lord. Aunt Petunia is beggining to be nice to Harry. She might be a witch herself!!! About the end of the book-*sob sob* i feel so sorry for Harry--Im sure everyone who read this does.:-( This book is packed with many different adventures-- its like tons of stories in one book! I could have rated it 5 stars but I felt that its a bit too gloomy and downhill. But its perfect if you love a good adventure and your crazy about Harry!!! Keep up the terrific books Mrs. Rowling!!! Can't wait 'till the 6th!!!

Summary: Worst book of the series!
Review: The book was not all that it turned out to be, it was not worth the wait and time to read it. The author seems to need to organize herself a little and could have made it a little more enjoyable. Although she did spend a lot of time writing it, it to me seems that not much effort was put into it. I was disappointed with the problems Harry was having and why things never seem to work out for him. With all the time she had made us wait I expected a much better book that did not seem to rushed. All in all it was fun to read, and some questions are answered but not a whole lot. Enjoy!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book!
Review: I dont think there is a best Harry Potter book since I love them all equally. I think this book is excellent. However Harry is extremely angry in this book which is different for Harry. However the book is long and wonderful! It gives a lot of answers to many questions and yet at the same time raises many more.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Loved it
Review: I'm 14 and I have to say I really loved this book. It was darker than all the others, which I liked. This book and the 3rd one are my favorites in the series, and the longer the better! I hope they keep getting longer and longer :-)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best and Most Mature
Review: It is true that the ending of this book is not the most lighthearted, especially compared to some of the other Potter books. But compared to the LAST one, I find this one a bit less foreboding and tense. True, the death is very impactful and saddening, but it is not as vividly described and darkly surrounded as the death in Goblet of Fire.

The rest of the book is highly enjoyable. In fact, it's the most fun I've had reading a book in a while. With Order of the Phoenix it isn't a chore to read, it's a pleasure. The book fleshes readers' favorite characters very well, especially Neville Longbottom and the Weasley Twins. Harry himself gains more personallity as his temper gets the best of him throughout. The usual wit Rowling puts into Hogwarts make the 870 pages seem like a breeze.

Bottom line: It's a must-have for any fan of Harry, fantasy, or classic novels.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book
Review: This book has been a very enjoyable read. In this book the author does a wonderful job of setting up for the next book. This book was a little long, but it was very exciting to start to watch the transition of Harry from a boy into adulthood. I truly find it noble and courageous of some Hogwarts students to take a stand for themselves with the learning of Defense Against the Dark Arts. I feel that this is not the best one, but it is quite up there. I feel that the best one she has written is book number four. This book is still a Great Book.
