Amy,
I would quote the bits I agree with, but I'd be quoting your entire 
post!  Well, except for the part where you don't think Lupin and 
Sirius are sexy - they both are very sexy to me.  There is so much 
going on in PoA that's under the surface.  I think it's the most 
character-driven of the 4, and it's the first time that I really 
really felt like I could get inside of Harry's head and understand a 
tiny bit of what he was feeling.
But there's one thing that nobody's really mentioned about book 3 that 
I'd like to add to it's long long list of wonderful attributes - the 
humor.

Book 3 by far the funniest of all the books.  I think from the moment 
the Marauder's Map began insulting Snape I laughed for the rest of 
that chapter.  I think that when you pair this with all of the 
wonderful things you and others have mentioned, you get one great 
book, even outside of the greater story that Rowling is writing.
kimberly, 
almost caught up with all the posts I missed this weekend.
