Let me preface this post by saying I truly do love each Harry Potter book. There are some books that I like better than the others. So here is my ranking of the 7 books. This does not include my thoughts about the movies.
#7: The Order of the Phoenix
I love the beginning of OotP. And by beginning I mean the part where they are at Grimmauld Place. I however despise Umbridge. So much that I had trouble finishing the book recently when I was rereading it (yet again). I also hate certain deaths at the end.
#6: Chamber of Secrets
Was just never my favorite. Wish I had a good reason.
#5: Goblet of Fire
Harry is just so angst ridden in this one its annoying. Its also ridiculously long and drawn out. Love the Quidditch World Cup though and the fact that we see other wizarding schools.
#4: Half Blood Prince
Here is where ranking them gets tough for me. I love all the rest of the books. I choose #4 for again certain deaths that take place. Also since Slughorn slightly bothers me at times.
#3: Prisoner of Azkaban
The first time we as readers meet Lupin and Sirius. Also Harry has a parental figure for once! So much good in one book.
#2: The Deathly Hallows
Is there a lot of death and sadness? Yes-staring from.the beginning. However it is so well done and is a perfect ending for this epic series.
#1 The Sorcerers Stone
The book that started it all and introduced us to the wizarding world. So much great stuff. The book that got us all hooked. Need I say more?
