Harry Potter and the Oder of the Phoenix?
Well,in my opinion the book is of 4 star quality. The first 300 pages or so were relatively boring and quite out of style. The uptake was really slow due to her being real long-winded. ( Perphaps she was pressed into writing her new book quickly so that we could all read the sequel? ) But after that slow first gear, the story managed to pick itself up and around page 600 had a snowballing effect, anything and everything seemed to be happening at the same time. Seems that she described the now heavy responsibilities that a teenager had, juggling studies with problems with friends and matters at home. Potter now appears to be a more mature character yet succumbing to the stress a typical teenager has. Thus explaining his outbursts of uncontrollable anger. The book also tries to explore the theme of "Why me?" and a little on relationships ( Cho Chang ) which i felt was written with skill. The subtlety in which a point was being driven across has always made me like her style of writing ( remember that its only worth reading after page 300 - before that is a no go, no show )
