Summary:
As Harry's fifth year starts, the wizarding world still refuses to believe that Voldemort has risen and come back. As Harry returns to school, he finds it dramatically different from previous years and controlled by the ministry. As a secret order reforms to fight off the Dark Lord, no one but Harry can fight off Voldemort as their minds connect and rage an invisible war.

What I Liked:
I loved the addition of how Harry and the Weasleys are always helping and saving each other.

Also, we finally got sassy Ginny and the addition of Luna Lovegood.

What I Didn't Like:
Even when I was reading this the first time, I had a hard time finishing this book. Out of all of the books in the series, I felt like this was the weakest, especially in the aspect of world-building and magical moments/aspects.

Overall:
Book 5 will always be the hardest book for me to read and get through.
