Yay, I`m the first one. I think the worst by far were the textbooks...they were boring and (obviously) plotless.

Prisoner of Azkaban, it is really intellegent and well thought out. It is deceptive and has secrets to the last page. It also has the legend Lupin in it!

| PoA is fantastic. It was my favourite book for AGES (till I read LOTR and HDM). I loved the schoolbooks, too, but OotP was just a series of excellent scenes weakly linked.

For me CoS was the best of the books, and I think that part of the reason is because it is scary. It was the best written horror book I have ever read. It had some of the best lines of the series and had a wonderful plot.

My fave's Goblet of Fire. i love it coz it's so rich-with the Yule Ball and the tournament, voldemort's return, i think it's brilliant!
and the textbooks were great too, harry n ron's comments in fantastic beasts was fun.

| T l Guitar ♥ l l Bed Police l S I agree that the textbooks were plotless... cause they're textbooks! They arent meant to tell a story.
I thought they were great, filled with fun facts and a fair bit of backstory... plus they were for charity! Its great that JK gave up her time to help! GO JK!!

Graduated | Miss Sarah Bippity Boppity Boo! ^ I agree. You have to admit, the textbooks are really useful in learning some stuff about the wizard world. It would have made the books even longer and more detailed had she put in all of that info.
I think JKR is a great person. She donates tons of money, is very friendly to her fans, and she wrote 2 books solely for the purpose of being donated to the Comic relief fund, lets hear it for JKR!
Now back to my vote... I voted PoA like many people, basically for the same reasons
