Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix There is a door at the end of a silent corridor And it’s haunting Harry Pottter’s dreams Why else would he be waking in the middle of the night screaming in terrorHarry has a lot on his mind for this his fifth year at Hogwarts a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher with a personality like poisoned honey; a big surprise on the Gryffindor uidditch team; and the looming terror of the Ordinary Wizarding Level exams But all these things pale next to the growing threat of He Who Must Not Be Named a threat that neither the magical government nor the authorities at Hogwarts can stopAs the grasp of darkness tightens Harry must discover the true depth and strength of his friends the importance of boundless loyalty and the shocking price of unbearable sacrificeHis fate depends on them all I cried like a little baby JK Rowling really starts taking the series down a darker road in this book She is so talented at character development and it really shines in this book Here Harry is 15 years old and for most of the book he's whiny and self centered just like a typical teenager I also adore Dumbledore's role in this book his conversation at the end with Harry put me to tears Rowling did an amazing job with the character of Umbridgenever have I hated a fictional character than I hated her I do have to admit I'm curious to see whether she makes any appearances or not For me this book was stronger for character development than plot Yes this is a key book for the series but I felt like most of the book was spent with characters' internal issues and development rather than the plot I love how Harry and the crew are dealing with adult issues now such as relationships and death As with all of her books I have a really difficult time putting these books down but especially within the last 100 pages I physically could not separate the book from my hands Overall another outstanding addition from JK Rowling “Is it true that you shouted at Professor UmbridgeYesYou called her a liarYesYou told her He Who Must Not Be Named is backYesHave a seat cause we bloody need to talk about trans livesI love Harry Potter as much as anyone which is why I urge everyone who spends money on these books to also support the trans communityTo say it with the author's words “If you want to know what a man’s like take a good look at how he treats his inferiors not his euals” WellHere’s a list of organisations that support trans lives feel free to reach out and recommend Every penny countsMermaids UKThe Trevor ProjectBlack Visions Collective because Black trans lives matterFind of my books on Instagram Interview with JK Rowling Stephen Fry Can we settle an important uestionJK Rowling YesStephen Fry How do you pronounce your last nameJK Rowling It is Row ling As in rolling pinStephen Fry So if any of you hear someone pronounce her name “Rohw ling” you have my permission to hit them over the head with — not with Order of the Phoenix that would be cruel Something smaller like a fridge A 86% | Extraordinary Notes It's a transitional book which holds back its potential but it adds greatly to its mythos with excellent new characters
