Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling

Harry returns for Year 5 after the shocking tragedy that occured last year. He is now whisked into a secret society that defends the wizarding world against You-Know-Who which the goverment denies that he's back. But Harry had strange dreams that sometimes actually happens...

This book is filled with fantasy and adventure and I recommend this book to those fans and those interested in the book will regret that they haven't read the previous books.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix is the 5th instalment in Harry Potter,I thought it was really enjoyable.In this book Harry finds out a bit more about Voldemort which makes him feel more alone then ever and to top that there's Umbridge. For a children's book it was kind of dark because Umbridge made him write with his own blood "I MUST NOT TELL LIES" , it was also a bit sad because Harry experiences the death of his godfather,Sirius Black and he was the closest thing to a father he's ever had.Through the year he feels misunderstood and unwanted because everybody thinks he's lieing about You-Know-Who returning to power.I felt really warm when the chapters where about Harry and his friends because it gave the story a hint of belonging.

Harry Potter and his friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, are expecting a great new year back at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, full of Quidditch and visits to Hagrid, especially after spending the summer trapped at the Dursley's, reading about how he and Dumbledore are nut cases for believing Lord Voldemort is back.
However, will the arrival of of a new teacher, Dolores Umbridge, ruin their year?
She makes up rules and gives Harry detentions. The only thing keeping Harry happy is the DA- Dumbledore's Army. Umbridge isn't teaching any real defense, just theory. Harry, Ron and Hermione form a group where selected students can join this secret club to learn proper defense from Harry.
On top of all this, Harry is putting up with extra Occlumency classes with Snape. He is missing Sirius dearly and is banned from Quidditch. Dumbledore has disappeared and Hagrid has been sacked. Will Harry survive the year?
