Summary: Great So Far
Review: Ive gotten about 100 pages in, and so far i love it. Whats crazy about it is that i kind of feel like harry reading for some time..i feel the frusteration..to find out what i am talking about you will have to read on. Otherwise the book is great, it is dark and funny at the same time, but holds that Harry Potter addiction in it. Of course you have to get this. My review is small but just because i cant spoil anything and because i still have some reading to do..Enjoy

Summary: I've been up since midnight reading this..
Review: This book definitely followed the trend of the other Harry Potter books in being better written and longer than the one preceding it. JK Rowling seems to get more precise and less like she's floundering around for ideas like in the first books as she keeps writting them. But I don't feel like going into the details of the book, I'm too tired.

Summary: Truely Magical (once again)
Review: I picked my copy up at 8 in the morning opting not to brave the midnight crowds. The minute I picked it up I could not put it down, so I faithfully read my way through grocery shopping and lunch. Finally 250 pages later I got home and spent until 8 in the evening reading to the finish! Anyway, it was everything I hoped for in the next book. I do not want to reveal anything terribly important because every suprise is worth the painful wait, but I can say it far surpassed all the other books. My only complaint is that it was sort of depressing...much darker and more serious than any of the other books. But it still was the wonderful, sometimes heartbreaking adventure that I expected.

Summary: Great for fans with a lot of questions
Review: This edition answers a lot of questions that we all have been asking. It also dispells a lot of the internet guessing too! Couldn't put the book down, finished it in 10 hours.

Summary: She did it again. amazing! (i gave nothing away)
Review: I am 20 years old, and let me tell you, few words can express the joy with which Harry Potter has filled my imagination and spirit. This latest book in the series spares nothing - it is fabulous. The fourth book, indisputably the best released before phoenix, provided a detail and suspense far greater than the first three. I believe the fifth offers even more excitement than the fourth. I simply could not put it down. So many deep stories happening throughout - Harry's transition into manhood, Voldermorts return, the realization of our young heroes vulnerability and the vitality of friendship. These are just a few. BUY THIS BOOK! and if you have not read 1-4... BUY THEM TOO! Escape from reality into a world where anything and everything is possible.

Summary: Not bad
Review: My hopes got really let down. As a long time Harry POtter fan, i was expecting something realy exiting, and somethin continiung with the plot line. This one has nothing to do with Hogwarts, but more about politics, and its not to fun to read. I didn't like many of the events that happened, and i don' know, it just wasn't what i explected... there is no solid plot line, other than the ministry is totally corrupted, and thats not too interesting to read about...its like JK rowling totally veers from the orginal hogwarts main setting, to know the ministry... its not too exiting, and i would not recomend it to that many people.. I think that the 3 year gha made a differece in how i looked at the book....

Summary: This one is good, but moodier...
Review: Wow! This one was a great book...We've read nonstop since 12:01 AM! It was much darker and moodier than the previous books, and took awhile to get started, but once it did...WHEW! We won't give anything away, but let's just say that Harry is doggedly pursued by the past, and it's effect on his future will be morose. He was angry in this book, and we expect in the next one that will continue. It's no wonder why the cover was blue, it seems to be the tone of the novel. Great Job, J.K., can't wait for the next one!

Summary: Potter Pride
Review: Before I start erupting into fangirl squeals, let me say a few things about Order of the Phoenix - it's dark. Real dark. Funny, too. And moving. Not to mention absolutely amazing. I don't think that I've ever been so emotionally involved in a book - and having perhaps read more books that some people ever read in a lifetime, that's saying something. I raged at the world with Harry, I wanted to strangle (or at the very least seriously maim) the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, I burst into hysterical sobs when - well - that person died (not telling!). I gasped, I giggled, I sighed, I smiled smugly as certain characters got their what-fors... JKR's back, and she's brought with her everything about Harry that we've ever loved, and more. Don't be surprised if you come out of your reading experience believing it's the best one in the series to date. And if you read this book and didn't get something out of it, not even a laugh, or a gasp of indignation, or a 'Well done, Ms. Rowling', I'd be seriously worried about your sanity. Now please excuse me while I go run outside and squeal like the proud Potterhead I am.

Summary: Very good, a fine page-turner.
Review: Man, am I ever relieved that this book wasn't as wildly hyped over the media as book four--it makes it easier to relax with and dive into this time. Far be it from me to go into details concerning the actual story, I'll just say a couple of notes about it while also adding that it's a fun book: (1) I'm so relieved that Rowling didn't insist on doing an "intro recap"ping all over again with this book the way she spent each "chapter one" in all the previous four titles. You know, explaining who Harry was, why he's so important, his background, etc. I guess she realizes by now that it's no longer necessary since everybody's either already heard of it all by word of mouth, or by the media or has already read the other novels. By this point the only folks who DON'T know about Harry's entire situation, whether they love or hate the series, are those living under a rock or on the moon for the past several years. So this time, she simply cuts right to the chase. Bravo. (2) Harry starts this book off EXTREMELY ticked; all the pressures and annoyances we've read about in the other books are finally testing his patience. It's a relief to see him become more and more believable as time goes by, as by this point I've be pretty frayed, outraged and disgusted by the whole lot myself. (3) I won't go into exactly how the book begins, I'll just say that the series had been seriously threatening to get into a rut with a specific sort of story setup that would repeat itself with each book before Harry made his way to Hogwarts (regular readers already know what I mean), although that pattern began to finally show *some* signs of changing with book four. This time, we *FINALLY* get a completely different launch that begins to get down to the meat of matters and addresses underlying tensions, not to mention unanswered questions and denials. Excellent. and (4) I've had my "phoenix" suspicions for a long, long time now. Fascinating to see I was accurate after taking today to devour this one. Superb, Rowling! :)
