First off let me say i liked the book,and i was so happy i almost cried when i got my hands on it. And i really enjoyed reading the book, and cant wait for the next one to come out

Now for my review of it

The Plot

This book could have opened up so many mysterious doors for the world of Harry Potter. JK could have taken somethings so far to make our minds explode with the possibilites.

Like the howler Petunia got, she could have done so much more with that than she did. I mean she could have taken that all the way back to James' family or something. Since Harry seems to be the last Potter

The Order could have been something much more than it was. I mean the theory mill at Mugglenet.com came up with better stuff than what it turned out to be

And what was with all the names when Harry got to leave the Dursleys? I mean only two of those characters were mentioned again in the book, so did we really need to read like 12 names?

The part with the Thesels could have been better too, if not Luna's reason for seeing them.

And i was this close to getting POed at Harry for snappig at everyone. I mean he acts like he is the only one hurting, like he is going through this alone.

Im glad Ron got some of the limelight. I'm just upset that yet again Harry's adventure took over, and we didnt get to see him win the Quidditch cup after we had to suffer through how bad he was. And tho i was shocked, im glad that Ron was picked as prefect, but the reason for it sucked. I mean Dumbledoor could have said that Ron was the better choice for it, but no it had to be bcuz of Harry, and not Ron.

And im tired of all the Slytherins being JERKS, i mean this is getting out of hand. We get to see the good and the bad from other houses, why cant we see the good from Slytherin?

And the reason Voldemort was after Harry really disappointed me, it really did and i hated that. I was just expecting something that JK had been building up to since the first book, and it just missed the mark with me.

I think Sirius could have died better, since he was going to die. I mean he could have died jumping in front of Harry to save him, or something, he just fell into a veil thingy, and i really hope JK runs with that in the next book, im smilig now at what she can do with that

The Characters

Mrs. Figg could have developed into a better character, i mean there was really no point in even mentioning her in GOF, and really no need to have her in this book.

It just seems to me that she wanted to make the characters change as much as she could. I mean Angelina used to be one of my favorite characters, but not after this book. I didn't like Dumbledoor at all in this book either

I didnt like Snape in this book simply bcuz for 4 years we have seen him push around alittle child, that has done nothing to him, and now its kidding old and annoying. I mean you would think he had better things to do than push around a kid, you know.

I wish we could see more of the Death Eaters, i really do. I wish Draco could do something that didnt have anything to do with Harry. I mean Draco is a strong enuff of a character to stand on his own without running after Harry

I hated Mrs. Weasley in this book i truely did. She needs to cut the apron strings. And she had no right to threw Sirius jail time in his face. He didnt beg Crouch to throw him in jail and cut him off from his Godchild, and i think that was below the belt. Harry is not her child and his parents left siruis in charge of him if anything happened to him, and she needs to realize that. I just really didnt like her in this book.

But Im glad she let Ginny and Neville shine thru in this book. Ive always loved Neville, im glad he got to do something that didnt have him burning a hole in another cauldron.

I LOVE LUNA LOVEGOOD, i really did. I just loved her so much. She is a free spirit who doenst care what anyone thinks of her, she is her own person.

Well that is my take on OOTP, it may not seem like it, but i really did enjoy this book.")
