Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
J. K. Rowling
Dumbledore lowered his hands and surveyed Harry through his half-moon glasses. ‘It is time,’ he said, ‘for me to tell you what I should have told you five years ago, Harry. Please sit down. I am going to tell you everything.’ Harry Potter is due to start his fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizadry. He is desperate to get back to school and find out why his friends Ron and Hermione have been so secretive all summer. However, what Harry is about to discover in his new year at Hogwarts will turn his whole world upside down…But before he even gets to school, Harry has an unexpected and frightening encounter with two Dementors, has to face a court hearing at the Ministry of Magic and has been escorted on a night-time broomstick ride to the secret headquarters of a mysterious group called ‘The Order of the Phoenix’. And that is just the start. A gripping and electrifying novel, full of suspense, secrets, and – of course – magic.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the fifth book in the Harry Potter series, and it’s quite an intense adventure! In this book, Harry returns to Hogwarts for his fifth year, but everything feels different. The Ministry of Magic refuses to believe that Voldemort is back, and they send in the awful Professor Umbridge to take over. She makes life miserable for everyone, and I felt really angry about how she ruined Hogwarts! My favourite characters are the Weasley twins, Fred and George, and Dumbledore. The Weasley twins are as always hilarious! They always lighten the mood with their pranks and jokes, which made me laugh a lot. I love how brave they are, especially when they stand up to Umbridge and decide to start their own joke shop. They bring so much fun to the story! I'm sad they won't be returning to Hogwarts. Dumbledore is another character I admire, but I was frustrated with him for allowing Professor Umbridge to take control of Hogwarts. I think he should have done more to protect the school and its students from her terrible rules. He’s supposed to be wise and strong, but it seemed like he was too busy to help when everyone needed him. The book gets very exciting when Harry starts Dumbledore’s Army, a secret group where students learn to defend themselves against dark magic. It was great to see Harry take charge and help his friends, showing how important teamwork is in tough times. The ending is really dramatic and shocking. The battle at the Ministry of Magic is full of danger, and I was worried for Harry and his friends. When Sirius Black, Harry’s godfather, dies, I felt so sad and angry. I really don't like how Rowling has started killing off important characters. I understand that the magic world is dangerous but I feel like the book would be just as good without all the dying. I would definitely recommend Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix to anyone who loves magic, adventure, and stories about standing up for what’s right. Although it’s darker than the other books, it’s still exciting and teaches important lessons. The Weasley twins add a lot of fun, and I hope Dumbledore steps up in the next book! I can’t wait to see what happens next!

It was very funny because at the end of the book Cornelius Fudge mouthed He’s back lord Voldemort is back.

I appreciated the book immensely. The use of tension through the final chapters of the book enhance the narrative story, while the suspense builds on throughout the entire story, adding to the already intense thrill. Although, the novel was fictional, there are still remarkably essential lessons spread neatly through the fantastic story telling. Some impact little some impact a lot. This book is a classic among readers. I would surly recommend this book to someone else, whether it is the first book they read or not. As it says " 7 Stories, But One Big Epic Adventure".

I loved the part when Prof Umbridge admitted that she set the dementors on Harry the summer before Hogwarts started and how she'd done loads of awful things. i also like Lucious Malfoy getting sent to Askaban with Umbridge.

I love Harry Potter books! My favourite character is Harry Potter but I also really like Hermione and Cho. I recommend it with a million stars to anybody who has a bit of stamina because it is a quite long book. Just read it.
