I thought that this book overall was very good. I think that J.K is doing very well at building up the suspense of what will happen to harry and co. in the end.

I think that J.K. Rowling showed how Harry is changing and is trying to find out who he really is. I read an article that said that OotP faced one of the scariest demons of all........"Adulthood". I think that that J.K. Rowling wrote in the fact that Harry and his friends are changing very well. They are no longer little 11 year old wizards nor are they full adults but Harry has faced enough hard ships in his life that even his elders have trouble dealing with and he is still a teen.

I think that the death in OotP was J.K. Rowlings way of showing that the books are getting darker. I know many readers who were extremley saddened by the characters death. I think that although the character is gone they will still play a role in future books. I also think that this will help Harry mature and realize what he really has.

I enjoyed the group of new characters. I thought that Luna was a very good character to add to the story. Though she is considered Loony I think she has a lot more common sence then people think. Now on to Umbridge and Kreacher...............I loathed both Umbridge and Kreacher. Umbridge seemed evil from the start as did Kreacher.

I liked the fact that Ginny was given a bigger role in the books. She seems to have become more open. Some think she will be the one to keep Fred and George's spirit alive even though they aren't at Hogwarts. I was also suprised that Neville played a huge role in this book, but I think it works out fine. It was a real shock to me. He was always clumsy neville, but now we find out that there is more to him than meets the eye.

I was looking for a bit more action between Ron and Hermione. I really expected something more to happen between them in the 5th book, but I guess we will have to wait. I was also hoping that something would happen between Harry and Ginny. I am as you can tell a Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione shiper! I found Cho kind of annoying. I felt that she rushed into a relationship with Harry as more of shoulder to lean on rather then someone she loved. I think they should have been more so mutual friends. I think she just has a problem with being alone. I think that she should take some time and work things out about Cedric's death before going out with another guy. I also found Hermione giving Harry love advice very cool. She seems to have a keen understanding of everyones love life but her own.

I overall enjoyed the book and am ecstatic to see what will happen to Harry, the trio, and the wizarding world!
