Favorite Harry Potter Book?

My favorite is Goblet of Fire. i don't know why.

Followed in second place by a tie between book 5 and book 3.

Book 3 for me... that's why I'm so excited about the movie coming out this weekend!

Hands down POA. I liked the 4th, but it just can't beat the 3rd.

You read my mind, James.


I love the Tri Wizard Tournament in Goblet of Fire!

This reminds me that I need to re-read 3, so I can go see the movie this weekend!

I think that the style and story improve with each book, so my rankings from favorite to least favorite are 5,4,3,2,1.

I love the writing in Book 5....I flew through reading Order of the Phoenix, where Goblet of Fire and the others took me a little longer to read (not that I'm complaining!)

But based on the adaptability to the movie, I have loved Books 1&2 since they both had Oliver Wood in them (I can't remember if Book 3 and on do or not ) and Sean Biggerstaff is yummy

I would also have to say Prizoner of Azkaban with GoF a pretty close second

Book 5 has to be my favorite....but that's why I am anxiously waiting for book 6. I heard that HP was supposed to die in book 7! That would really suck if he did!

#3 is definitely my favorite. So excited about the movie!

Is there a thread about questioning what we think will happen in books 6 and 7? There should be...

I'm currently re-reading Book 3 to get ready for the movie, and yes... Oliver Wood is in his final year at Hogwarts, so we get to see him one more time

Such a shame he's not in the movie.

My order is 3, 5, 4, 1, 2. I love the backstory that you get in the later books, with Sirius, James, Lily, Lupin, etc.
