Review of 'Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Harry at 15 is whiny and a bit of a jerk. Still, this was a fantastic re-read, full of great character development, descriptiveness, and action.

There is a door at the end of a silent corridor. And it’s haunting Harry Pottter’s dreams. Why else would he be waking in the middle of the night, screaming in terror?
Harry has a lot on his mind for this, his fifth year at Hogwarts: a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher with a personality like poisoned honey; a big surprise on the Gryffindor Quidditch team; and the looming terror of the Ordinary Wizarding Level exams. But all these things pale next to the growing threat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named---a threat that neither the magical government nor the authorities at Hogwarts can stop.
As the grasp of darkness tightens, Harry must discover the true depth and strength of his friends, the importance of boundless loyalty, and the shocking price of unbearable sacrifice.
His fate depends on them all. (back cover)

So many details that are missing in the movies. I'm really glad that I've decided to read the entire series. It's not about the ending it's about the journey.
Wow! So much that either wasn't in the movie or was a lot different. It's this kind of stuff that makes me glad I'm reading them.
