Dinah,
I so agree with everything you wrote.  I too love 3 the best!  I feel like I got to know all the characters better and they were given some depth.

Book three is my favorite. First off, because it's not just eh old Voldemort
tries to kill Harry thing. Because we get to know much more about Harry's
parents - the scene in the Three Brooksticks is just priceless, I was really
sitting with Harry under that table and felt with him.

Because I was intrigued by Lupin even when he sat snoring in that train
compartment. And I really admired him by the time he had praised Neville in
front of Snape.

Because Sirius and Remus are wonderful characters. The first adults in the
book to really have deep, interesting characters, IMHO. And because they are
cute beyond belief.

Because of the drama behind the whole Sirius-Tragedy. One of the
key-sentences here is the mention of Sirius laughing after all the Muggles
were killed. What bitterness, what sarcasm. Knowing you have lost everything
and being angry won't change a thing.

Because Severus showed his crazy side. Mad and drooling, full of bitterness
as well. Thinking that your arch-enemy got what he deserved and then
learning that it might have been wrong. All your satisfaction gone because
you actually feel sorry for him, but won't admit it to yourself.

Because of the absolutely surprising end. It was three o'clock in the
morning, I couldn't put the book down, wanted to know who or what it was.
Gasping "What? No, I don't believe this!!!" so olud that my parents nearly
woke up. I stayed up until five o'clock and re-read the whole book on the
spot.

What can I say, I'm hooked! This book isn't just a good story - this is the
book where all the characters became real for me.
