Book 5 - My worst so far

I have to say from reading all the books published to day, Book 5 was the most awful for me.

1. Harry being banned for life from playing Quidditch (though I cannot understand why he was not re-instated once Dumbledore came back at the end of the book).

2. Sirius dying. ( This cannot possibly be a spoiler as many sure have read the book by now)

3. Dumbledore being sacked as Headmaster (but I was pleased when he was back at the end of OotP).

4. Dolores Umbridge becoming the new Headmistress. 😑

5. The twins leaving Hogwarts. 😭

There are so many other things but unfortunately I am pushed for time to put down everything.

Please say which books are your least favourites and why!!! 😊

Book 5 was my least favourite too - but yet, I think OotP is better than most books I've read, so, you know.

I didn't like OotP mainly for CapsLock!Harry. Urgh. I hated this over-emotional Harry, shouting at everyone everytime for everything. It was totally annoying, but justified I suppose.

I didn't like the whole mood of the book - it was totally dark, and you found yourself being solemn a lot of times. I totally hated Umbridge, and I didn't much like Sirius's death either.

I DUNNO why u say book 5 is the worst.in my opinion its the BEST! πŸ‘ i have mentioned in the poll which says which is the fav book n i voted 4 book 5.its soo very confusing with a lot of inner meanings.yeah there have been certain tough situations but they r soo well written that u r gripped to the book!
this is just my view.

Actually, the 5th one was my second favourite book. Besides all the terrible stuff that happened, I really enjoyed it. The kids forming DA right under Umbridge's nose, introduction of Luna, the Occlumency lessons with Snape, and the entire Dept. of Mysteries scene (very exciting read I must say).

πŸ˜† Rashmi - "CAPSLOCK!Harry"

Really hard to say which book is my least fav (I still love them all), but I would say that its the 2nd book uptil now because it was another Harry escapes from Voldy in Hogwarts kind of adventure - a little bit of a repeat after Book 1.

I love all of them, but I don't see how you guys don't like book 5!!!!!! All of those tragic incidents made the Order of the Phoenix the BEST book. I'm going to read it again once my library re-opens! πŸ˜ƒ
