Favorite Harry Potter Book

[Blinus]

So... answer.

[Lord Yu]

The one where he does that one thing. It was awesome.

[Not a Ninja]

Philosopher's Stone. Although the second & third came close, none of the other books truly captured the lighthearted wonder and excitement of the original book. And by the way, it's called Philosopher's stone, Philosopher's stone. None of this Sorcerer crap.

[Robotkiller]

goblet of fire most definently it just had the most action.

[Blinus]

I'd heard something about Philosopher's Stone, but I wasn't sure if people would recognize it. So I put Sorcerer's. Sorry. :-/

[martryn]

I personally liked The Order of the Phoenix. It showed more of the world of wizards and stuff and I liked all the underground resistance stuff. I thought that stuff was cool.

[mr_yenz]

Umm... not too fond of the series anymore so Prisoner of Azkaban or something like that? Sirius Black izh cool. ^^

[Black Swan]

For me it would be the latest book so much was revealed and so much treachery, though the goblet of fire comes at a close second it was by far the most action packed book of the series thus far.

[9Tail-Hokage]

I absolutely loved Prisoner of Azkaban, then Order of the Phoenix. Loved them all, but these two stand out.

Book 7 shouldn't be in there; it's not out yet.

[Darth Judicar]

It's between Order and Prince. I'll need to read both of them once more to make a final decision, but I'm leaning more toward Prince at the moment. Also, there's nothing wrong with the title Sorcerer's Stone compared to Philosopher's Stone. You have your preferences as I have mine, so none is better than the other. I prefer SS anyway, as PS sounds odd while SS sounds better to me.

[Blinus]

I'd chosen Chamber myself since the ending to that surprised me. Chamber spoiler below.

Possesed by Riddle or not, Ginny Weasley being the culprit blew me away. I figured it would be Percy since he was acting Itachi-ish. I know it seemed like they were purposefully pointing at Percy, especially towards the end, but I thought maybe it was like how Quirrell was the obvious first villain and maybe the trend would continue. Meh.

[TheBlindHyuuga]

I've loved all the books...but my favorite is still Prisoner of Azkaban...it's probably the only one that I'd reread more than 5 times....it was just the best one in my opinion...so...I'm voting for Book 3 Prisoner of Azkaban.

[Ruri]

Prisoner of Azkaban will always be my favorite. ^_^

[batanga]

Prisoner of Azkaban, it just had... something.

Second one was the worst, IMO.

[Dyroness]

Goblet of Fire. :box Half-Blood Prince comes close, though!

[Ponko]

I liked the Prisoner of Azkaban. Lots of Snape, lots of Sirius, and I was really surprised by the ending. Order of the Phoenix was alright too, but Harry really got on my nerves in it.

[Gunners]

For me it would be the goblet of fire.

Funny entertaining, and sad, all at the same time. As th books go on they get more depressing, especially book 6 or was it 5 both upset me, actually 6 was worst we had a build up to the death.

[Aman]

A lot of stuff happened in the Order of the Phoenix so i voted for that.

The Prisoner of Azkaban get's the 2nd place. :)

[Intrepid]

My favorite was CoS because that was the book that got me into the series. Ginny and Tom still remain my favorite character up until today. After that I'll have to say GoF, it was entertaining. I really didn't like Ootp and HBP because they seem too fanon-like. Although HBP bets GoF in terms of humor and "subtext" scenes. So much Harry and Draco smut, it's enough to keep every fan girl entertained.

[Keyser Söze]

goblet of fire for me. don't know why.

[Mousuke]

My fav = Half Blood Prince


Philosopher's Stone: Eh, it was okay, too little kidsy (yeah yeah, it's a children's series ^_^)
Chamber of Secrets: It was fun, but still too kidsy
Prisoner of Azkaban: My second favorite. This one was well connected with itself, it had a circular feeling to it once it was over. Nothing was out of place and every detail had a purpose. Well done.
Goblet of Fire: My third favorite, although it did waver with unnecessary things (ex. S.P.E.W., Rita Skeeter's excessive articles) But it redeemed itself by resurrecting my favorite HP character, Voldemort
Order of the Pheonix: In my opinion, by far the worst thus far. Although it was long and a lot of information was given, I couldn't help but feel in the end that not much was accomplished. Basically it was just Harry angsting, Umbridge being annoying (what was the point of her, anyway?), the ministry being naive, and the Order being righteous. Then at the end a last-minute "action" scene was thrown in and Sirius was killed off to make the book seem like it had a purpose. All in all, I wasn't impressed.
Half-Blood Prince: Finally, a book almost as connected and circular as the third one! For the first time since book five I felt that the story was going somewhere. Also, more limelight was shed on Voldemort, my fav, and then my other favorite characters, Snape and Draco.

And then there's book seven...personally, I hope Voldemort wins, it would be so anticlimatic if Harry triumphed ^_^

[dale2]

Book Three for me. It was very clever and set a lot of things up (for example, Sirius). Also, it wasn't too long so it didn't slow down much.

[monk3]

i kinda liked half-blood prince the best. its just like, kinda suspensful and.........how can i say this................very, intriguing........:P

[sunj01]

i like the Prisoner of Azkaban

[sharingan_clan213]

goblet of fire most definently it just had the most action.

I think i love u...jk...lol really im kidding

yes i agree with u GOF seems to be he best even though it was the second longest book in the series.

[Sakura Kaijuu]

Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite. I love them all, really, but no one dies in Azkaban and there's no direct interaction with Voldemort. He honestly scares the crap out of me.

Plus I love Sirius and Remus. And I like the fact that we finally find out something about James. Other than that Harry looks like him.

[Yoshi]

Prisoner of Azkaban for me. Had lots of action and suspense and a great story.

[Gene]

I've only read one Harry Potter book which is the Goblet of Fire. I've see the last three movies. I like that book the best because in my opinion it has the most action and...
Somebody actually dies at the end

[Sawako]

The 3rd book has always been my favorite.

[Tsukiyomi]

I enjoyed Half-Blood Prince most because it was the most adult and we finally got to see how Voldemort became Voldemort.

In the Half-Blood Prince we get to see spells that are meant to inflict serious damage like what Harry used on Draco, Harry is going to need to learn to not only use spells with the intent to kill, but to do it without words. It was an excellent setup to Harry's final growth.

I want to see the final battle between Harry and Voldemort all the more after Half-Blood Prince.

[keikun17]

Prisoner of Azkaban & Goblet of Fire tied for best IMO

[Ah B]

Goblet of Fire was my favourite. The movie left out a lot of good details that were in the book.

[Nakor]

i voted half blood prince, but that was tied with order of the phoenix.

half blood prince was a more mature book and it got deeper in the use of spells. spells without speaking and reading someone's mind while doing spells(snape did with harry). it got me really excited for the 7th book.

i also like order of the phoenix alot because it showed harry as a real kid. he couldn't rely on dumbledore the whole time so he had to do things that he thought were for the best with lots of opposition. plus the fight with dumbledore and voldemort at the end was awesome.

[rizahatake]

1.Prisoner of Azkaban <----Voted for this
2.Order of the Phoenix
3.Sorcerer's Stone
4.Half-Blood Prince
5.Goblet of Fire
6.Chamber of Secrets

[olaf]

Prisoner of Azkaban, dunno why.
Maybe because in this books the arc "OMG We're fucked!! Voldemort is coming back!!" started?

[Rikudou]

Hmm the last two. It revealed so much of the plot and also much intel on how it all started, etc. J.K.Rowling is holy.

[sharingan_clan213]

I don't know why you guys enjoyed reading Prisoner of Az. the most. And smae with HBP. I think thiswas the worst out of all the books. Short, skippy, and nothing eventful happns in teh book until the end. I enjoyed GOF the most. And Order of the Phoenix was just a bad time for Harry and teh rest...

[sncneo222]

I like the HBP the best, had most excitement and suspense for me. I would've picked the Order but it was a little boring in the beggining

[mUcHo LoCo]

the 3rd one cus ppl die in it...

[Brandt]

I have to say the third (Prisoner of Azkaban) was the best. It was simply perfect in all aspect in my opinion. Not too long, not too short, and a good plot. In terms of my top 3, they are:

1. Prisoner of Azkaban
2. Order of the Phoenix
3. Half-Blood Prince

[Kusajishi]

I have to say that the fourth one was the best one, it feelt like it was a change in the book, like voldemort wasn't the only important thing in the book. Still the fifth one was also great, it was abit slow in the start and stuff but you found out alot and the book gone somewhere and yeah the end was just amazingly good!

well yeah all books are great imo but those to are the best

[sunj01]

i think Harry is a losers

[Kusajishi]

^ then you defently didn't read a book, I usualy hate books but Harry potter.. I realy can't stop reading it.. its impossible.. everyone who tried to read one says the same thing.

[sunj01]

^ then you defently didn't read a book, I usualy hate books but Harry potter.. I realy can't stop reading it.. its impossible.. everyone who tried to read one says the same thing.


:laugh dont get me wrong i like the books iv read them but im not in 2 it like most people ok :laugh

[Kusajishi]

^ ohh heh ok, well I'm into it alot and stuff because the books are just to great =D

[sunj01]

smile-bigLOL thats truesmile-big

[Erkekjetter]

that's a hard question. I really have loved each one. I think my favorite would have to be The Chamber of Secrets.

[Kiie-chan]

My favourite would have to be the Prisoner of Azkaban though, I hated the movie...so many details were missing and I found myself rather bored. But then again, in my opinion, books are generally better when they stay as books and aren't turned into movies. Sure some movies turn out good but there are always those that don't.

[Cæk]

i love number four and three :nuts

[Tayshia]

Order of the phoenix beacos it's the longest one, thoght even that one ends to fast.

[Lexiefaye]

I go through stages. PoA was my favorite for the longest time (1999-2003 or so) but now I am infactuated with Order of the Phoenix (produced the most theories, was book just out at height of my obsession). My favorite climax is the turning point in GoF - but the rest of the book just didn't live up to that ending. HBP still hasn't really set in yet and I'm still weirdly enough 6 months later kinda in too much of a shock from it to REALLY analyze it yet.

[Giant Enemy Crab]

The last book will be the best!

[nimrod]

chamber of secrets
why?i'm not gonna hide it since most have seen the movie...
GIANT SNAKE DUDE!among other things like the shocking and "in your face" ending

[Naoko Tasaki]

I love OotP and PoA the most. PoA Becuase it has Sirius (Sirius owns) in it and the plot pwnz all, and OotP becuase a) it's longest (I <3 long books) and b) It was....RAAAARGH SO COOL.

And all that jazz.

[starsun]

I have only read 1-4 and the 4th waas the best in my opinion

[NaraShikamaru]

:P I have only read up to the 4th one and ATM i would say the 4th one is the best so far

[Flaxen Snail]

The Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite.
I was pretty disappointed with The Half-Blood Prince. D:

[minori]

It's almost impossible to decide, but I voted for Philosopher's Stone. Probably cos I was most excited while reading it since it was the first one. ^^ The Prisoner of Azkaban and The Half-Blood Prince are also my favourites.

[Spooky_Bunny]

Order of the Phoenix

[Second-Hand Love]

I have to say, Goblet was the far best, but I am quite Anti-Harry potter ( I am anti-everything) so I would go with the last one. Harry Potter sucks. I would rather read, like Pride and Prejudice or something.

[Hatsune Miku]

The 3rd one. Prisoner of Azkaban. I'm not an HP fan anymore so frankly, I don't really read them no more.

[sonnie_skies]

Three and five were the best-written, but five and six are my favorites.

[sharingan_clan213]

Anyone ahve a clue when the last book is comming out?

[ethanarc]

"Goblet Of Fire" still kicks' so much ass till this very day; it's just my best ever.
Still so pissed that they excluded one of the 'Greatest Quiddith Matches of All Time' out of the the movie, banshee mascots' & all. My friends' & i almost went bloody 'Hulk' when we saw that sh*t!!!

I guess it would be closely followed by "Order Of The Phoenix":P

[Aman]

OoF. :amuse At least in my opinion.

[SkyIron]

Goblet of Fire was the most in depth of all the books so far....

[Deputy Myself]

part 3, can't be bothered to look up the english name :P

[Lacus Clyne]

PoA > All of the other HP books. Plain and simple :noworry

[thevassago]

i voted half blood prince, but that was tied with order of the phoenix.

half blood prince was a more mature book and it got deeper in the use of spells. spells without speaking and reading someone's mind while doing spells(snape did with harry). it got me really excited for the 7th book.

i also like order of the phoenix alot because it showed harry as a real kid. he couldn't rely on dumbledore the whole time so he had to do things that he thought were for the best with lots of opposition. plus the fight with dumbledore and voldemort at the end was awesome.

Exactly the same opinions, but I voted for order of phoenix :)
Even if my favorite character died i n the end :( . But I like Stephen King so I'm already accustom to it :wink

[notcomawhite]

the third book!

well at least it was before the movie for the third book came out q.q

[thedisturbedone]

Out of all the books, I'd say the Chamber of secrets was the best.

[DuoMaxwell2o6]

Goblet of Fire was the best one for me. :thumbs

[Red_dragon]

6th book for me

[Elite]

I haven't read the the 6th book yet but I've read the first 5 and my favorite was the 3rd one:Prisoner of Azkaban.

Damn I've been wanting to read Hal-blood Prince but I keep forgetting to buy it or borrow it for a friend. Hopefully I'll read it when it's summer.

[vanh]

Goblet of Fire for me.

[Hanako]

Anyone ahve a clue when the last book is comming out?

Some people are saying July 7th, 2007. So that's 7/7/07 and its the 7th book! I'm not sure about that, but I'm pretty sure it will summer 2007 though..

[Lexiefaye]

If 7/7/07 is a Friday night then maybe ...


BTW, any HP fan should head over to JKRowling.com cuz it has had a major update with 5 new easter eggs.

[daph]

Half blood prince..never thought it was snape...i thought he is pure blood...cant wait for the last one..

[Kent]

goblet of fire and the latest book, The half-blood prince! :wtf

[Larethian]

As for me The Prisoner of Azkaban but i would consider as very interesting also The Order and The Half Blood Prince

[Rinali]

3rd and 4th books were awesome. 1st was good too although I bit too childish to my taste

[yummysasuke]

I like The Prisoner of Azkaban and The Goblet of Fire.

Did anyone feel that The Half Blood Prince felt too rushed? Because I sure did when the book abruptly ended.

[ViolentlyHappy]

I like the Goblet of Fire but I must say I was sadly dissappointed about the movie... :cussing

[The Sin]

I like the Goblet of Fire or the Half-Blooded Prince

[Vile.47]

Goblet Of Fire, as it is a turning point for the series, the ball, the tasks and Voldiemort coming back is just awesome!

[Alia_Atreides]

I'm not a big fan of Harry Potter, but I've read it. Oh, I would say the Prisoner of Azkaban, it has Sirius Black, a character that I actually liked.

[tank!]

oh man, i love hp... but yeah, i think the books are getting better as they get more mature. like philosopher's stone was kinda childish, but half-blood prince was quite adult at parts.

apart from the seventh, i would have to say goblet of fire would be my favourite. 5 & 6 dragged at points.

[LieToMe]

Gotta say the 6th and 4th

[gaara_rulz]

The order of the phoenix well its ok what I read so far.

[happygolucky]

I have to say Goblet of Fire is my favorite book. The whole Tri-Wizard Tournament thing was pretty damn cool, and when I saw the movie, it -kinda- killed the book a little bit, but it was still nice to see it being acted out with all the special effects and stuff. And no, I'm not a PotterNerd. I used to be when I was reading all the books. >_>

[Ivyn]

I'm not a big fan of HP, but I've read it (except the last book - no time for reading it now. I'll wait till summer holidays start :)). Anyway, I like Prisoner of Azkaban.

[ancientme882]

yep i tink goblet of fire's e best. liked e movie too:)

[Bolliewolliepoepapas]

The prisoner of Azkaban
I actually liked how the book didn't focus on Voldemort for once, but on the others that were involved in the tragedy. And it also introduced Sirius Black <3. This book was about friendship, betrayal and vengeance, not the usual "Voldemort tries to kill harry in some impossible magical way" like the first two.

[Dejiko]

i love all of them!! except the 6th one totally sucked....

[DrUnK_On_RuM]

umm i enjoyed the 5th [order of the pheonix]

one thing to say-
once i went to the debut for the 6th book and there were people dressed as charactors. i understand they like it but still its just a book if your gonna dress up as a charactor dress as one from some anime or manga. but thats just me.

[Black Swan]

Philosphers stone, b/c i was 11 when i read the book and forgot who i was and was harry potter while reading that book. No other Potter book made me feel like that.

[Death]

Goblet of Fire. Best book out of the series

[Deviant]

Goblet Of Fire, it has lots of action and romance in it! And Voldie comes back!

[Lazarus]

Prizoner of Azkaban, definately. The werewolf/criminal is really a good guy thing seemed so huge when it first came out, I just ate it up XD The fourth book was a huge let down after that, especially since she'd waited too long to publish it, and the excitement kind of died down...

The sixth book just makes me laugh. Remus/Tonks, wtf?

[TenshiOni]

Goblet of Fire, ftw.

[Toboe LoneWolf]

Whoa, only five other people with me on Chamber of Secerts?

IT HAD SNAKES, YO. AND A SWORD. XD

I only like the first three books, and the second the best of the three. Not really into HP that much, really...I would've choosen the last option, but yeah: snakes. And a sword. =D

[coriander]

Nothing beats Prisoner of Azkaban for me. the twist and everything was just great. 2nd to it hsould be Half Blood Prince.. :amuse

[BakaKage]

I gotta go with Goblet of Fire coz... you know...CD dies!!!!!!! :kukuku

but in all seriousness, I just liked the Triwizard tournament alot that's all and Voldemort's return was cool too.

[LieToMe]

I love the whole series....I can't make a favorite

[Jink]

I like the one where harry put it in rons pooper

I think that was a yaoi doujin...

[Nuriel]

I loved the Goblet of Fire. By far, my favorite HP book. Although, the Half-blood prince was pretty good as well.

[kissntell]

goblet of fire for sure i mean so sad when cedric dies :cry

[Yasha]

Half-blood Prince is my favourite. Very few books can match it.

[nekocat17]

My favorite would probably still be Prisoner of Azkaban. It's hard to say though because close second would be Chamber of Secrets.

[RamenLover]

My Favourite is Prisoner of Azkaban, it ruuuules

[Hyuga Hinata-chan]

I liked the Goblet of Fire. Tri-wizard Cup!

[EqUaL bAlAnCe]

i thing the goblet of fire was the best, but the half-blood price came close in 2nd

[Mangekyou28Sharingan]

To me the 3rd book was the best. It just had something in it that really interested me. I'v read that book at least 9 times! (Yes, as you can tell, I am a bookworm ^_^). I think it was because it introduced two whole new characters that will continue to be used in the books (at least Lupin will). This was also about the first time they got into depth about Harry's parents when they were younger.

Sorry, am I typing too much? ^_^;

[Kurenai-neko]

My favorite by far is Prisoner of Azkaban. Why? Cuz Sirius rules. :laugh

[Hangatýr]

Ummm... Sorry to burst your bubble, but nine times isn't all that much. I have read each book upto the GoF atleast twenty times, be it in Dutch or English, OotP around ten times (which, incidentally, is my favourite of the series so far) and HBP around six times.

[Wolfshinobi]

I like the Goblet of Fire the best.

[IIIPBZ]

i love PoA. GoF is easily my second favorite. i liked OotP's dark undertones, and the DA, but Sirius died in that. :cry

i didn't like HBP at all, except that Harry and Ginny finally got together.

[Hangatýr]

Don't spoil, dirtbag.

[Mizumi]

goblet of fire it was more action in it and people gets killed and stuffs well (the firts person) + they have a swedish dragon :nuts

[Hangatýr]

Swedish Shortsnout, to be exact.

>.>

[nefer_sbedjieb]

I like the half blood prince.
It was cool to know about the life of voldemort.

[xcry]

Order of teh Phoenix was good, because...well Harry potter was Biyotching like crazy, which was kinda funny, but kinda made me pissed off at him.

I cried though, at the end. Well...kinda, since my friends ruined the ending for me.

The Half-blood prince was kinda obvious on who's gonna die near the end. x_X which my friends kinda...ruined for me too. GAH.

[Amelie]

prisoner of azkaban, Sirius! <3

[warrior1000]

goblet of fire was the best

Order of the pheonix came second, that quick wand work by shackelbolt classic and right behind the minister

[faithangel]

goblet of fire..

[Kent]

<3 goblet of fire anytime~~~

:blink I'll probably love the last book too

[Hangatýr]

goblet of fire was the best

Order of the pheonix came second, that quick wand work by shackelbolt classic and right behind the minister
My favourite part was with Phineas Nigellus Black; "You know, Minister, I disagree with Dumbledore on many counts ... but you cannot deny he's got style..." :lmao

[cinosweiv]

Prisoner of Azkaban.
Order of Phoenix

[mary no jutsu]

i'd have to say the 3rd and 4th and 1st were my favourites.

3rd because it had alot on family and didn't have a lot of voldemort.

4th because it was so action packed, and it had so much stuff going on i really liked that one.

and the 1st because it what drew me in. that first book really just has a... should i say very innocent feel to it. like when you read it, it feels like eating champorado that was cooked by your grandma (filipino thing). or like eating cookies with warm milk.

[proleptical]

Prisoner of Azkaban, definitely. Mostly for the fact that it introduced two of my favorite characters and it marked the beginning of the trio's awkward, albeit fascinating, teenage phase.

[Gunners]

My favourite part was with Phineas Nigellus Black; "You know, Minister, I disagree with Dumbledore on many counts ... but you cannot deny he's got style..."
Nah my favourite part was

''ah i thought we migh hit that snag, well you seem to be labouring under the delusion that i am going to, whats the phrase, come quietly''

I dunno that moment just made me laugh, he is one of the characters who is quietly rude a long with snape and mcgonnagol.

[Fitey777]

Phoenix was the funniest, but Prince gets it for developing the story the most...

[Kin]

Well, o_O I love them all. I don't really have a favorite Harry Potter book o.o

[Mew♥]

i'd have to say Prisoner of Azkaban. I dunno why, i just like it the best.....:P

[stalkingllama]

This is a tough one - I always have to choose between the 5th and 4th books. GoF and OotP were both excellent, but in the end I had to choose Order of the Phoenix.

[8018]

my fav. would be PoA =o
just cos Harry finds out that
he still has family, or something
along those lines X]

[Deranged]

My favourite written wise, i have to say that Prisoner of Azkaban was the best written, i really enjoyed reading that...

Content wise, i have to say its Order of the Pheonix :oh

[Anemone]

Prisoner of Azkaban FTW!!! :knk

[isanon]

Order of the Pheonix is my favorit followed by gobblet of fire

when i read the chapter when fudge visits harry after the tornament in the end of GoF i was acualy so angry i threw the book in the wall making i nice mark in the wall

but i still like book 5 the most for many reasons

[Low-fi Boy]

Prisoner of Azkaban was my favourite, since Harry got his firebolt, the marauders map, went to Hogsmeade, and won the Quidditch cup, it was just pretty good to read.
After that, Order of the Phoenix because it had a good ending.

[Molekage]

azakaban. its really awesome

[escamoh]

Either Goblet of Fire or Half-Blood Prince.

[Nathan]

The Order of the Phoenix all the way.

[TerrorOfDeath]

Half-Blood Prince followed by Prisoner of Azkaban

[Mojim]

Goblet of Fire is the best Imo :nod

[99wattr89]

I liked 'The Order Of The Phoenix' most, that big 'action' sequence at the end was great.

[Booster Beetle]

The Prisoner of Azkaban. It introduced some fun characters (Black, Lupin) and to me it had the best plot twist of them all. It was the ideal length, thorough, but not ponderous and perfectly balanced drama and action with humour. I haven't enjoyed the following books nearly as much (though Goblet of Fire came close)

[hyo–shin]

the third and fourth part is my fav, the sixth one is almost fanfiction to me.

[99wattr89]

the third and fourth part is my fav, the sixth one is almost fanfiction to me.

LOL
I know what you mean.

[hyo–shin]

LOL
I know what you mean.

well, u can't have everything.

[Blood Dawn]

I've started to dislike all of them due to the fact that she plans on killing Voldemort with LOVE! I mean... wtf?

[Hangatýr]

I've started to dislike all of them due to the fact that she plans on killing Voldemort with LOVE! I mean... wtf?
Indirectly with love, not directly.

Honestly, lack common sense much?

[Booster Beetle]

Aww, I was hoping to see Voldemort go down via Care Bear Stare

[Hangatýr]

If he goes down at all.

I'd love an ending in which Voldemort lives.

[hyo–shin]

I'd love an ending in which Voldemort lives.

"neither can live while the other survives."

or smthg like that.

[Hangatýr]

But there's also the fact that not all prophecies are furfilled.

[hyo–shin]

for example?

[Hangatýr]

Read the final chapters of OotP, Dumbledore states there that the prophecy is only significant aslong as Harry and Voldemort make it so and questions Harry if he really thinks every prophecy in the Hall of Prophecies has been furfilled.

[hyo–shin]

Read the final chapters of OotP, Dumbledore states there that the prophecy is only significant aslong as Harry and Voldemort make it so and questions Harry if he really thinks every prophecy in the Hall of Prophecies has been furfilled.

read all of 'em, naturally a while ago, but this info wasn't available in my bad memory. thx for refreshing it.

[Hangatýr]

No problem.

[Deranged]

the sixth one is almost fanfiction to me.

Actually i have the same sentiments... i just hope the 7th will be done better (and hopefully itll be a little darker as well) :oh

[chibiheart]

Goblet of Fire. I loved the whole Tri-Wizard Tournament and all the other schools and characters :) I hated the movie though, although I am sure if I haven't read the book I would've liked it.

The thing is, with the HP films, stand-alone they aren't bad, but they leave out and add in so many things. The worst so far, IMO, has been the Prisoner of Azkaban movie, that was just wrong in so many levels. I enjoyed some of the particular scenes in Goblet of Fire, such as the dance-lesson, but the Quidditch World Cub, the three tasks and the fact that Bagman was not included irked me to no end.

As for the sixth being just like fanfiction, would this be because of the romance, or?

[hyo–shin]

what I liked about the movies was the typical british flair. the story was flawed and partly futile for those who haven't read the book.

as for the sixth: no, not just the romance. imo the authors writing style wasn't the same as in her previous books. some would argue that the sixth part is just preparation for the last one, but come on. harry potter simply got too big.

[Hangatýr]

I found his obsession with Malfoy quite tedious, I enjoyed the romance, although it was a bit hasty.

If only there was romance with Malfoy.
That would be hilarious.

[Hangatýr]

Not really.

I've gotten enough of those damn Malfoy/Potter shippers at the HP boards.

Just call it HBP, that's what most of us do. >.>

[JB the Jedi]

Goblet Of Fire.............................The MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!! :yell

[99wattr89]

Goblet Of Fire.............................The MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!! :yell

Yeah. I loved that book.
I was especially impressed by the special effects, considering it was only a book.
The characters really came to life.

[Hangatýr]

They still left out the Blast-Ended Skrewts, Sphinx, Acromentula, the major part of the Quidditch World Cup, Winky and Ludo Bagman.

The who seeing Barty Crouch Jr. so soon in the movie bothered me aswell.

I thought the Skrewts especially were a great shame, they were one of the things I liked most in the book.

[Hangatýr]

It's worse in the third movie, in which they left out THE WHOLE DAMN QUIDDITCH CUP and gave Harry his broom at the end of the movie. I mean, WTF? The Werewolf also looked like a fucking wererat, they should've used the one from Van Helsing.

The makers of Van Helsing might not have been very happy about that...

[Hangatýr]

It's all Warner Brothers, so who gives a shit?

[_allismine_]

I liked "Order of the Phoenix" the best; that one surprised the hell out of me. The Half-Blood Prince is taking on a much...darker undertone, I didn't like it as much.

Oh yeah, and the movies are gay. :nod

[Chieri Blossom]

I can't quite decide.

I loved the 3rd but also the 2nd story-wise. GoF wasn't bad either but the whole yule ball thing kind of annoyed me (or that "romance" stuff in general >_>).

I also liked OotP, but not as much as PoA and CoS.

[Nami-swan]

I have to say PoA. The first two were good, but when I read PoA, I was like, on the edge of my seat, trying to figure out if Sirius was gonna kill Harry and if Lupin was evil...it was awesome!!

But I like HBP cuz of all the couplings and hormones!!

[Rin <3]

Ive never read any harry potter books XD

[uchiha_shinobi93]

Goblet of Fire was my favorite. It had so much excitment!smile-big

[makeoutparadise2]

My favorite Askaban I did'nt like prince though

[Tsuuga]

Goblet of Fire FTW!

[MoonLight Dreamer]

I must say Chamber Of Secrets. I am into snakes alot so it works for me. Stange that I love snakes but I don't like Orochimaru that much.

[Chaos Lier Len]

Half Blood prince just sticks out for me. it adds some interesting complexities, and i love what she did with Dumbeldore.

Also, "sorcerer's" stone is the american name.

[Kansu-Chan]

Hmmm order of the phoenix I think:huh i didn't read the other books

[Kamioto Furin]

Prisoner of Azkaban FTW!!! :nod

[Vietangel18]

Goblet of Fire! Though the Prison of Azkaban came in a close second.

[Moondoggie]

Honestly I have only read the first three, and I am going to rely on the rest of the movies. But Prison of Azkaban is a favorite of mine to read. heh

[Dead Bones Musician]

Prisoner of Azkaban. The movie did not do it justice!

[Knight of Fate]

I say the first one is the best, its the book that got me into Harry Potter.

[blastt]

Half Blood Prince, once I started reading it I couldnt put it down. Although I found the plot of Order Of the Phoenix slighty less intresting than all the others.

[Teru♥]

Goblet of Fire even though Cedric died.

[Onya]

Order of the Phoenix. I enjoyed angsty-Harry. That and the ending. Not that I was happy about it; I just thought it was well done.

[Hatsune Miku]

Prisoner of Azkaban. XD Really loved sirius alot :D

[Inner-Kyuubi]

Order of The Pheonix pwns all!

[Maffy the Love Doctor]

The 3rd :thumbs.

[KageMane]

Goblet of fire. the book, not the MOVIE!

[Mariia]

My favorites are Harry Potter and The Prisoner Of Azkaban and HP and the Goblet Of Fire. They were in my opinion the most exciting.

[Kimimaro]

I prefer the 4th one, Goblet of Fire, but I accidently pressed the "Psh, Harry Potter? Losers." button. :(

[competitionbros]

Goblet Of Fire is my fav but i think Order of the Phoenix is the best

[Mukuro Rokudo]

I picked Half-Blood Prince because it had alots of twists and in depth information about Voldemort's immortality. :amazed I thought that was really interesting, until a certain person's death threw me for a loop at the end...:mad That's just me.

[louipwns]

Goblet of firewuz the best but i stil hate harry potter(dunno y)

[Suzie]

The Half Blood Prince is my Fav. :amuse

[Sammy-Jo]

Prisoner of Azkaban....

Sirius Black is my hero :P.

But really, I just don't think the other books are as well-written....

The second book was terrible. It was almost like a filler episode in anime...it was like, before we get to the important stuff, let's write a filler story of what happened in his second year. And then to disguise it as a filler book, she threw in a few tiny facts that will show up again in later books so die-hard fans can be like, "OMG TEH SNAKE REMEMBER PAGE 201 IN THE SECOND PARAGRAPH WHEN THIS HAPPENED?"

*ahem*....I'm done. Harry Potter is over-discussed to death. It's really not that great of a story....

[Wolfy]

For now, its Order of the Phoenix.
It was such an important book, and had so much in it.
I cant wait until the next one comes out, I'm very exited for it.

Its funny though, CoS is such an unbearable read.
I'm dreading re-reading it again. [Going through my 4th round, prepairing myself for the movie]

[FireCandy]

Goblet of Fire is the best in my opinion.

[Iria]

Goblet of Fire...easily.

Just enough action/flirtatiousness plus the premises of a big Quidditch World Cup and an awesome Tournament of Champions!

From there it just gets all angsty (but its still good)

[runeknightx]

Prisoner of Azkaban wins hands down. No contest. The first two were pretty good and it peaked for the third book. But after that, the story kind of went downwards and began to get worse and worse. The 7th book better be good to make up for the lack of "goodness" in the most recent 3 books.

[arklogic]

I liked the latest one because it was the most developed. I didnt really like how the other books built up. it was kind of repetitive.... starts at the uncle's house, goes to hogwarts, ordinary school drama, fights evil person, wins yet again. gets trite after a while. I'm hoping the last one will be really different

[Mrs. Hatake]

Goblet of Fire... was the best to me:amuse

I loved the whole thing about it. Now the latest book was good, but I have to say that Goblet was the best!

[Sakura]

PRISONER OF AZKABAN.

Something actually happened at the end that was unpredictable, and it easily beat the crap outta the rest. Simple.

[Hell On Earth]

what is the age group that the harry potter books target?

[Triggerhappy69]

Action wise, Goblet of Fire pwns all. But I really did enjoy the hell out of Half-Blood Prince. So much shit went down in that one it wasn't even funny.

I wonder if the last one will have a time-skip or somethin, cuz I don't think Harry has a chance in hell of beating Voldemort when he's only 17.

[Sasori]

Number 12

[kakoishii]

Goblet of Fire definitely. Things go a bit downhill after that "Order of the Pheonix" was needlessly long imo

[w1p3r]

I like The Goblet of Fire the best:laugh

[Cel3stial]

Goblet of Fire... was the best to me:amuse

I loved the whole thing about it. Now the latest book was good, but I have to say that Goblet was the best!

Cool.I love the Goblet of Fire.I read it in a week.I was addicted.

[Lalaith]

My favorite book is Order of the Phoenix. I've read it twice and I plan on reading it again soon. It's just so full of so much that I like; there's a great complexity to it which is unusual to the series. And it's got a heaping good amount of Lupin, Sirius, and the Weasely twins. It's also the first book that made me cry. I just love it!

[Daisy]

I liked the Prisoner of Azkaban best. I just thought the whole time turner thing was awesome. and sirius black is just plain amazing.

I also think this is the only book in which Voldemort didn't appear...correct me if I'm wrong.

[Rezo]

My favorite book in the series is Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire . Simply put , it was the most complete and it far surpassed my expectations which were high to begin with .

On another note :

Gorgeous

[AnimeMistress (inactive)]

Personally, I can't vote for a single one because... out of all the ones I read, they were all equally awesome... Can't wait til the 7th book though...

[momolade]

first two :\

[HakuPotter]

Goblet of Fire is my fav.
Chanllenges and competitions always attract me a lot.I've read it several times and every time it becomes more exciting.

PS:I heard Harry would die in the end,is that true?

[Rori]

The 5th is my fave by far. The 3rd is second on the list, but all the action at the end of the 5th was awesome.

[RichAss-Assassin]

I think the series peaked at Goblet of Fire, it just blew me away. There was so much action, triwizard tournement, quiditch world cup, and harry's first fight against voldemort. PLus it had the first death i cared a little about.

[Beachan18]

Prisioner of Azkaban is the one I like best.

[King]

I'm not really into Harry Potter, I think the books are too long.

[Moses]

The last one by far.

don't know the definition of 'losers'
they obviously think it means 'yeah, those books are awesome'

[@lk3mizt]

i really liked the last one! it was by far the darkest, scariest and smexiest!

[metal_uzumaki]

The best one for me is the fourth book. It was just exiting from the start to finish. This ofcourse is followed by the third book which is my second fav.

[mrpresidenthehe]

Prisoner of Azkaban. I felt the story's quality climaxed here. Now, I really don't like the blatant black-and-white, good-vs-evil direction the series has turned. But that's just me.

[Kisame]

Order of the Phoenix.

No question in my mind. Loved that book.

[Rukia]

The Goblet of Fire. It has the most interesting plot. I also managed to talk to a cute girl at the bookstore when I picked it up.

[NudeShroom]

The fifth, Luna is definately one of my favorites, and the ending just really made me love it! :nuts

Six students in the Department of Mysteries battling it out with Death Eaters, just seemed so awesome to me.

[AshCrestedHeart]

prisoner of azkaban had been my favourite for ages..I've read them so much now that it's hard to tell..but I'll stick with that one

[Dr. Kirk]

POA was the first one I read. I loved it. Only the book though.

[Aman]

1. Order of the Phoenix.
2. Goblet of Fire.
3. Prisoner of Azkaban.

[Gunners]

Goblet of fire.
Half blood prince
Prisoner of Azkaban
Order of the pheonix
Philosophers stone
Chamber of secrets.

[Spell]

Prisoner of Azkaban ftw

[LieToMe]

The 6th book and then the second.

[Hell On Earth]

How much do The Harry Potter books go for?

[S.o.L]

1. Order of the Pheonix
2. Goblet of Fire
3. Half Blood Prince
4. Prisoner of Azkaban
5. Sorcerer's Stone
6. Chamber of Secrets

[Mister_Anbu]

1 Order of the Phoenix
2 Half Blood Prince
3 Prisoner of Azkaban

[bancy]

I don't know.. I couldn't really decide.. xD

I have multiple favorite books because of different reasons:
1. Chamber Of Secrets - for Tom Riddle & the Diary. Yum. Yum indeed. ♥

2. Prisoner of Azkaban - for the Marauders! <33333333 *HUGS THEM TIGHTLY* Me loves them muches. :]

3. Goblet of Fire - for the return of Lord Voldemort. ( I mean, finally. I had sat there after I had finished reading the first and second books thinking, 'When the hell will Voldemort come back!?' ) I mean, he's .. so.. awesome. o.o;

4. Order of the Phoenix - for a lot of things.. for the Order itself! For Snape's worst Memory. <3 I loved that chapter. And for Umbridge .. really loathed her ( & I still do, though she made the book interesting.)

5. And finally, Half Blood Prince - for young!Tom.. and teenager!Tom.. *fans self.* :P

[Ongakukage]

I think that the sixth one was the best. Harry has gotten his last task in destroying Voldemort once and for all. And he set to it. Also, even though it was not a good thing, I liked the ending...

[Sakura]

Prisoner of Azkaban; just because it held a much more fulfilling plot.

[Rhyth]

1. Prisoner of Azkaban
2. Half-Blood Prince
3. Order of the Phoenix
4. Goblet of Fire
5. Sorcerer's Stone
6. Chamber of Secrets

[metal_uzumaki]

^ Yeah the PoA is great. Can't wait for July to come I want to read the new Harry Potter.

[natwel]

the goblet of fire was the first and best. chamber of secrets was second best. I have only read the first part of POA and it was good, but that was my favourite film.
