love
I absolutely love the harry potter series, and all of the books will always hold a special place in my heart
I have to say that of all of the books, however,this was not my favorite.when the series began it was as much of a”fell good” experience as a huge mug of hot cocoa.the stories were bright, fast-paced,intriguing,and ultimately satisfying.
Order of phoenix is a different kind of book. In some indstances this works…you fell a whole new level of intensity and excitement by the time you get to the end. I was truly moved by the last page. Other times the book just has a slightly dreary, depressing fell. Long, as if we’re reading all about harry “instead of having his usual adventures. Reading in detail about harry cleaning up an old house, for example-housekepping is stiil housekeeping,magical or no, and I’m not very instersted in doing it or reading about other people doing it.
A few other changes in this book-the”real” world comes much more in to play rather than the fantasy universe of the previous books, and harry has apparently been tsken off his meds. Iknow that he had a lot to be grumpy in this book, especially with being a teenarger and all, but the sudden xhange in his character seemed to drastic. He goes from being a warm-hearted, considerate person to someone who will bite his best friend’s heads off over nothing.it just seemed like it didn’t fit with his character,like he turned into a walking cliché of the “angry teen” overnight.
The “real” story seemed to happen in the last 1/3 of the book, and this part I loved. I actually liked the ending(and yes I cried!) as sad as it was. It packed a punch and it made me care about the story even more. Still a really good book, with some editing it would have been great.
