Harry Potter | 
so-soI didn‘t think this was the worst, but also not the best. My friend (who‘s also an English teacher) reminded me that Rowling was writing for her maturing audience and adjusted her content and approach with each book. I‘m trying to be patient, but this one was just okay.
pickJust finished book 5 and I'm still reeling at how many HUGE details were left out of the movies. This one is just so good!! My adoration of Neville has begun!
pickFinished this up a few days ago as my fiance and I continue our re'read. Umbridge is such a "good" villain, disguising her evil and prejudices under a cloak of pink and kittens-- with a voice that makes you want to stab yourself in the eye with a quill, a most dangerous type and not unrealistic! The most disappointing part of this book was and still is the fated prophecy at the end. Luna shows up finally yay!

Deer stronganoff and homemade outback bread. 😍😍😍 Then Sirius had the audacity to go and die and ruin my mood
And?
Did everyone see this announcement? This and Prisoner of Azkaban are my two favorite of the series. 🥳 Now I‘m over here… waiting 👏 for 👏 October 👏 🎆🎇
pick9/10
I am really impressed by how much reading the books has made me appreciate the movies! I think this book really gave a lot more insight into Sirius/James/Snape backstory and Dumbledore‘s struggle with caring for Harry. I wish the movies showed all of that more, especially putting Dobby in the movies! Sirius‘ death broke my heart and reading Harry‘s thoughts was hard. I can‘t believe I‘m almost done with the series… on to the next!
pickQuinto libro della saga che ci introduce verso la battaglia finale ormai prossima, ben scritto e immersivo lo trovo un buon capitolo!
I‘m doing an HP reread and I‘m on OOTP at the moment 🔥

pickI enjoyed this book! Just read my second read years after my first read and there were so many details that I forgot about!
pickThere‘s a scene in this book where Molly‘s boggart brings her to tears. Lupin enters the room and assures her that no matter what happens to her and her husband, their children would be well cared for. The heartbreaking irony is paired with a reminder that the Order of the Phoenix members care for each other like family. Long after the war ends, they stay close knit and no one is left orphaned and alone.

Harry really is very grumpy for most of this but I don‘t blame him. Dumbledore was foolish to think Harry could not handle the truth. Particularly when the alternative was to be ignored. The loss of Sirius hit me hard as always; the discussion between Harry and Luna about the veil is always emotional. And the sadistic Umbrage is despicable. Looking forward to watching Imelda Staunton in the film - an amazing cast.
The favourites !!!
Dumbledore is the only one left, just not able to find one.
I‘ve added to my Harry Potter Pandora bracelet. Love it! 😍 I still have many more to go. ⚡️🪄🦌🗝✉️🚂📚✨❤️
🎶Dream a little dream of me...🎶
1. Harry's nightmare of becoming Nagini and attacking Arthur Weasly left me shaken for days as a kid!
2. When planning my wedding, I would stress-dream that the wedding would occur with only what I had finished planning at that point (Photographer but no DJ, empty church since I hadn't send invitations, I wore a dress but my husband's tux wasn't fitted yet...)
3. It's lazy, I always feel lied to. 😂

pickSo much fun to reread these books!

I've seen a bunch of Peeves posts for this prompt but he's definitely the only thing that I thought of. He's such an annoying character though, I honestly don't mind that he was written out of the movies except for this scene. I loved how he honored the Weasley twins by continuing to play tricks on Umbridge after they left.

Well Bilbo has handed in her OWLs essay. She seems to think she knows it all and is ready. We'll see what the Professors think of your answer Bilbo although I'm not certain that's how it works.... 😅🦉📝🪶😍 #owlsoflitsy @CymbaX13 @Mishu94 @GondorGirl @Chrissyreadit @magyklyXdelish @TheWolfbehindTheEyes @LindaLaforgeAuthor @Yuki_Onna @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Cupcake12 @BookDadGirlDad @smalldogs_bigbooks2419 @DaveGreen7777
pickBook #5 and the ministry doesn‘t believe Harry & Dumbledore that Voldemort is back. The ministry tries to butt in too much, and remove Dumbledore from hog warts. And that‘s just the beginning as the connection between Harry & Voldemort is stronger than ever.
It's raining out. This is a lovely way to enjoy the calming sound. There is also a beautiful rainbow 🌈 kids are puddle jumping 😍 what a nice Sunday 🌧 happy reading everyone 📖 ❤ 📚 #dogsoflitsy #readingbuddy #readingpet
Harry Potter and Sherlock Holmes!!!
I always wanted a Harry Potter figurine and now I HAVE ONE!!!
Was finally able to start this read lol. This imagine spoke to me today and in Hufflepuff colours 💛🤗🖤 the magic of reading and Harry Potter. Hope you're all ok littens happy reading 📚 ❤📖 @TheWolfbehindTheEyes #harrypotter #hogwarts #magicofreading #reading
@Enchanted_Bibliophile you take half the blame for this and @CymbaX13 you take the other half 😅🤣 a cool coincidence though with my book. Will post how it looks after getting and doing the hedwig lego also. Yay! #lego #harrypotter #phoenix Happy reading and weekend everyone 📚❤📖
pickThis one is SO long. Do I think it dragged sometimes…maybe a little. Also can we talk about J. K. Rowling‘s sudden obsession with the word “groped”??? Towards the end I just kept seeing it! Sometimes in two sentences in a row. 😂 Anyways, I‘m in love with the characters way too much to ever judge these stories too harshly. 9/10
Onto the next book of the series. The kids have stationed bamboo to baby sit me whilst they're at school whilst I'm ill 🥰🐼😄 he's been doing well hehe #hogwarts #harrypotter #panda
I've had my paperwhite for ages. And I had a cute little case that's held up well, but the hole where the power port is was too small, so I was constantly having to take it out of the case to plug it in. So I bought myself a new one and now I can plug it in while it's in the case (plus, how adorable is it?!?). It really is the little things in life that make me happy. 😊
pickIn this book, Harry‘s magical world grows again and we learn more about the Ministerium of Magic, St. Mungo and the power of the media. Harry grows a lot too, personally & emotionally. Although it is big, there are no boring chapters here, though I missed the bigger mystery factor from book 4.

pickBk17 of August, Bk6 of #LittensDressedInBlood & Bk2 of #20in4 #readathon is done! The fifth in the series, this one comes in at a whopping 816pgs & is the longest of the books. It definitely made my #ChunksterChallenge list. It‘s not my favourite book, mostly because Umbridge makes my skin crawl, but it is an important one which sets up the ending nicely. It‘s also very sad😢 #ReadItAgainSam #PennyPerPage #Pageathon
pickAfter ten days I finished the longest book I‘ve ever read. And it was great! I think this might be the best HP book so far.
Every time I‘ve watched the movie I‘ve always had the feeling that they had to leave out a lot of the plot from the book so I was excited to finally get to read it. Although I love the movie, I have to admit that the book was so much better!

pickThis fifth installment in the Harry Potter series is definitely a lot darker than the previous books. I enjoyed the plot in this one and how we got to see more of Hogwarts and the classes. The characters were still amazing and Fred and George are still my favourites, though Luna is creeping up to be my favourite. And I can also honestly say Umbridge is the worst, alongside Percy Weasley, yes I just said that. Some parts of this book made me
Sorry for my recent snail pace! Here are #potterday discussion questions for Book 5. 💀📚✨
1. Harry is an excellent teacher — better than many of his own teachers. Why do you think Harry becomes an auror and not a teacher?
2. I've heard it said that “nothing puts down rebellion so fast as boredom“ (from On Tyranny or Witch, Please) and it makes me think of terms and conditions. What do you think of that phrase in relation to Umbridge's methods?
pick4⭐️ Still not a favourite. I felt like the book just kinda dragged, even though there is lots of things in the book that become important in the remaining 2 books. It‘s just not my favourite of the series. #2021 #jkrowling #harrypotter #reread #fiction #youngadult #fantasy #bookreview #bookstagram #litsyatoz #o #bookspinbingo #potteraday

pickI've heard a lot of people say this this was their least favorite of the series. But I thought it was so good! It made me love Sirius so much more 😭 and Mrs. Weasley is just so funny to me. That makes 2 Prof of the Dark Arts teachers who end the book confused. Umbridge was the worst, ugh. After Goblet of Fire, I don't remember any of the movies, so it was like I was learning about the story for the first time. God, I want to go to Hogwarts.
so-soThis is my least favorite of all the Harry Potter books. I always wonder what the point of this book was. The big thing that Voldemort was after seem like such a waste of time to go after once you learn what it was and everything could have been solved in less than a chapter but no it was spread out over 500 pages.
Feeling a bit Potter today.
Quick backstory: my dad LOVES LEGOs, and always sends me pictures of the Harry Potter sets because he knows how much I love HP. But I‘v told him that I just can‘t collect LEGOs because I collect too many things already. Well, this text he sent me just now has finally tipped the scales! 😆❤️😍😍
