Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix

I recently read Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling. It is the 5th book in the very popular Harry Potter series. This book starts out with Harry and his cousin getting attacked by dementors, which are hooded creatures that have no face, only a mouth, and they feed off of people's happiness, leaving them with nothing but sadness. They also have the power to suck out one's soul through their mouth. After using magic to get rid of the dementors, Harry gets expelled from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Thank goodness the Order of the Phoenix comes and gets him out of being expelled. The Order of the Phoenix is a secret organization of witches and wizards that was created to fight Voldemort, the most evil dark wizard in history. It is made up of many people that Harry knows, and many that he doesn't know. When Harry finally goes back to school, he finds that he is almost friendless. Nobody believes him that Lord Voldemort has returned, and the newspapers are always talking about how he is insane. It doesn't help that there is a new teacher there, who came straight from the Ministry of Magic, and she despises Harry. She doesn't allow them to use magic in class, doesn't let groups form, and is so crazy about the rules that everybody is having an awful year. She even replaces Albus Dumbledore as the Headmaster temporarily. So his 5th year at Hogwarts finds him almost completely alone, until there is a mass breakout at Azkaban, the wizard prison, that includes 10 of Voldemort's biggest followers. After this, people start believing Harry that Lord Voldemort is back, because Azkaban is supposed to be impossible to break out of. Throughout this book, Harry meets new people, such as the crazy Luna Lovegood and Grawp, Hagrid's brother who is a giant.  He goes to new places, such as the Department of Mysteries. He also experiences the death of someone who is very close to him. To find out more, READ THE BOOKS.

I would recommend the book to anyone and everyone. Harry Potter is one of the most popular series' of both books and movies. If somebody wants a good read, this would be the series to go to. Yes, I know they are long, but once you start reading them, they actually seem really short. It goes by so fast and every page just drags you in even more with the anticipation and intensity of what will happen next. Enjoy your read!
