Book Title:
Harry Potter And The Order Of The Pheonix
Book Author:
J.K Rowling
Age Group For This Book:
Age 10-12
Review From:
Dublin
I think that this book is incredible and a crucial part of the “Harry Potter” series. It is a follow up book for “Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire”. This book had me feeling so many strong emotions - happy, sad, exited, suspenseful, etc. - that no other book had me feeling before.

In this book, Harry finds out about a secret organisation that is trying to defeat Voldemort for good. Harry learns that his scar has given him a connection to Voldemort which allows him to see visions, and feel his emotions. Voldemort now has the power to posses Harry and it is crucial that Harry learns Occumology to “close his mind”. He lerans more about his scar and his past. This year was an incredibly stressful year for Harry, with his O.W.L.S going on but also with the Ministry of Magic trying to take over the school and another encounter with Voldemort. Will he be able to get through it all?

This book is, although quite lengthy with 800 pages, such a page turner that I was able to complete it in around 4 days! The only thing wrong with it is that it’s impossible to put down! I reccomsnd this book to anyone who loves mystery and magic, let alone suspense! It was a pleasure to read this book and I cant wait to read the next book in the series, “Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince”!
