[@nothingmuch1039e9]

Of course, order of Phoenix is OP

[@hpedits4502]

No we all cabt agree

[@SirNiceGuy88]

Chamber of secrets

[@FullStewart]

Alright i dont know if youll ever see this but the little obstacles before the philosphers stone do have a purpose. They were put there to challenge the golden trio, because only the mirror is necessary, due to the enchantment surrounding wanting it but not wanting to use it. Dumbledore could have left it in the middle of the great hall and quirrel never would have gotten it. The obstacles were meant to be passed

[@koastir96]

Funny enough my favorite character from the second book was lockhart. He was so full of himself and his ego was bigger than his britches but I couldn't help but smile every time he popped up on the page. His personality bled through the pages. It always made me laugh and felt like his character was the most flushed out. Just my opinion though :0

[@natnattynattyy]

i love that you gave so many good arguments supporting your opinion (and i definitely agree with your top choice. i think i actually agree with everything, you got me thinking and hm... now i can say you convinced me!)

My opinion (From Least to my most favourite): 1) The Chamber of Secrets 2) The philosopher’s Stone 3) The Deathly hallows 4) The Half-Blood prince 5) The prisoner of Azkaban 6) The Goblet of Fire 7) The order of the Phoenix

[@chaddusgeneralpythor8665]

i love Dumbledores a mirror of erised but it is so flawed, if voldemort sent a death eater to get the stone then they would be able to get it, all they need to do is get the stone but not to use it themselves

[@_OMister_]

Loved yours! Here's mine: 1°: *Order of the Phoenix* -> Loved Harry's PTSD and character' study. Loved how broken Harry is and how shitty this particular year in Hogwarts was being. I think the climax is kinda shitty, and Sirius death is a good finale, but was kinda unecessary. It also has pacing issues. 2°: *Half-Blood Prince* -> Albus Dumbledore. We never had seen him so close, and it was great. His death is the greatest death Just Kiddind Rowling ever wrote. It's also tight and well-paced. The Malfoy subplot was okay, I guess. The lack of grief from Harry about Sirius is upsetting, considering how much he suffered for Cedric. 3°/4°: Prisoner of Azkaban and Goblet of Fire 5°: Deathly Hallows (shitty ending) 6°: Sorcerer's Stone 7°: Chamber of Secrets

[@tylerkostich6203]

My list, least to most favorite. 7. Sorcerer's Stone - Introduced us to the wizarding world, but I just felt it's the weakest out of the series. The Boy Who Lived is one of my favorite chapters of the series though. 6. Chamber of Secrets - Most people place this below Sorcerer's Stone, but I personally believe it to be better. It introduced wizarding racism and the power Voldemort can have over unsuspecting people. There was also a sense of mystery, more than any other book. 5. Prisoner of Azkaban - I know most people place this higher. I just don't like the time-traveling aspect it introduced. This is the book where Harry is starting to mistrust the institution and introduces us to Lupin and Sirius. 4. Goblet of Fire - Barty Crouch instigating the whole thing was interested, and the series starts taking a darker tone by the end. 3. Deathly Hallows - The culmination of the series, and it has my two favorite chapters of them all : The Prince's Tale and The Forest Again. 2. Half-Blood Prince - Harry's, Ron's, and Hermione's last normal year at Hogwarts. The forays into the pensive with Dumbledore were always interesting. Also shows just how brilliant Snape was as a student. 1. Order of the Phoenix - My favorite, which tends to be polarizing. Yes, Harry is angsty, but I believe it makes him more relatable. This book is just depressing . . . which is why I like it, lol

But I do agree the other later books are just better

[@TheWhovinerd-1963]

Loved the ranking. My personal ranking is 1. Harry Potter and The deathly hallows, love how it doesn’t start at Hogwarts and we get to see the impact of the war on the golden trio amazing character development. 2. Harry Potter and The Half blood Prince 👑, phenomenal book 📕, I absolutely love how it develops upon Voldemort’s character as we discover more about his past and I also love Snape in this book. 3. Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire 🔥 phenomenal read it gives us a slightly different direction in the story as it starts to get darker, it’s the book I couldn’t put down because of how amazing it was, and Voldemort’s return is horrifying but so iconic and mad eye moody an amazing character. 4. HP Prisoner of Azkaban- amazing book gives us a lot of mystery, the character relationships are on point and the reveal of pettigrew was amazing. I also love the father figure of Remus Lupin to Harry and RTD dementors are a cool concept. 5. HP Philosophers stone a great introduction to a series giving us the characters and works within the story it remains an iconic classic as it started the franchise. 6. HP the chamber of secrets- I don’t hate this book at all it is a very underrated book it’s fantastic and keeps the reader engaged with the horror aspects of it. The highlights of the book are Lockhart and The mystery of the chamber of secrets. Now we come to my controversial pick 7. HP Order of the Phoenix- now I still love this book 📖 it’s just my least favourite as there are many unnecessary parts to the story that sort of lose you in the story. I hate the attitude of Sirius in the book so I don’t feel as sad when he dies. However the highlights of this book for me are the introduction of Luna Lovegood and Professor McGonagall standing up to Umbridge. McGonagall remains my favourite badass teacher at Hogwarts. This is my personal opinion you may disagree and that’s okay, to each their own xx

[@JJ_5289]

Enjoyed your rankings. One of the things that stood out to me after rereading the series is how the side villians like the malfoys, wormtail, and snape all were more compelling characters than voldemort in my opionion. Even with the backstory we get in the 6th book, voldemort is kind of written as pure evil from the beginning. Not much of a character arc like our other main characters

[@Unlucky_fool_1409]

but i feel voldemort too is a good villain. like we actually do not see him for the first 3 books. we technically see him in the ending of 4th book only . so i would say he is a pretty good villain .

[@lordlcww6536]

Finally completed a Harry Potter reread earlier this year (I always just stopped after the first two or three in my past rereads for one reason or another) and found out that my ranking of the books are almost the opposite of my ranking for the films. My Ranking (Best to Worst): Goblet of Fire - i felt like this book did the best job at balancing their time at Hogwarts and uncovering Voldemort's secrets. Half-Blood Prince (least fav movie) - was not expecting to enjoy this book as much, learning more about Tom Riddle and Snape >>> Prisoner of Azkaban - great job at darkening the tone Philosophers Stone - so most nostalgia for this book Deathly Hallows - the last half is so great but its held back by the first half quite a bit Order of the Phoenix - also suffers from a poor first half but is redeemed by the latter half, just dragged on too much for my liking Chamber of Secrets - lots of great additions but the plot has always been my least favourite

[@Carolina-rd3gh]

7:25 Goblet of Fire is definitely not well paced. It takes 200 pages to get to Hogwarts and maybe 300 for the plot to actually get going. I was stuck in page 192 for over a year as I didn’t want to pick it up and put me into a reading slump although overall is a very good book. I loved the first few darker chapters but then up to page 200 was too many chapters before the main plot and kind of destroyed the beautiful darkness of the opening chapters. It should have been a bit more concise.

[@alistairgussman3895]

I understand your opinion but I personally loved Harrys time with the Weaslys. He seemed very happy and I think it was fun seeing him with a family and fitting in.

[@nothingmuch1039e9]

Dark mark and quidditch were so it makes sense

[@Carolina-rd3gh]

@@alistairgussman3895 I liked that as well but only in book 2. Book 4 was too much without nothing happening for too long. Sorry for taking forever to reply. I’m currently reading the series for the first time and I am currently on book 5 so I love discussing the books. Book 4 was still my favourite out of the first 4, I gave it 4.25 stars. It had the best opening chapter thus far, liked the diversity of magical creatures and how characters finally started developing more and stakes raising and finally focusing on the Voldemort plotline. I just didn’t like the pacing (worst pacing out of the first four, even though I liked everything else a bit better than the others), wanted a bit more description and lore from the magical creatures of the tournament and the one of the main mainculprit twist was a bit too out of no where and not enough foreshadowing to be satisfying and completely paying off.

I think girls love Snape because of the movies, but if you read the books you see that Snape was nothing but an arrogant, sadistic, bullying ahole, who enjoyed torturing kids. Yes he was obsessed with Lily, and decided at the end to spy for the enemy, but that does not make him likeable at all.

But it is still a very charming and awesome book with good plot twists *3: The Philosopher’s Stone:* It is an awesome book for kids and adults equally. It was the first HP book I read and it will be always have a place in my heart *4: The Half-Blood Prince:* Probably one of the most emotional books in the series. The sub plots are very entertaining to read. Overall an awesome book *5: The Goblet of Fire:* The Tri Wizard tournament is one of the best and most creative plots in a HP book. The characters are very interesting. One of the best *6: The Deathly Hallows:* I cried so much when reading this book. Its the and the darkest in the series. It has the saddest deaths and the twists are just chilling *7: The prisoner of Azkaban:* This book just has a charm that the others can’t replicate. For me It is absolutely the best one, and it introduces the best characters. It is also when the series starts to get darker, my favorite book.

[@monkeydluffy9274]

What I love about prisoner of Azkaban is that it is different from rest of Harry potter parts the only part where no voldemort, no special child and sh*t. This part gives a dark and eery feeling even though no one dies, this part has a mysterious serial killer lurking in the hogwarts and Terror of dementors. It is more slice of life part where less action, more drama and horror
