FYI to anyone who's joined the group since January 2001:  the polls 
section has four polls asking what one's favorite/second 
favorite/etc. of the novels is.  (This is the only way a Yahoo poll 
allows one to rank choices.)  Add your 2 Knuts!

You've hit on my personal reasons for liking these two best, Peter.  
Basically, PA and GF are darker and more psychologically complex, and 
JKR impresses her world-creating skills into the service of emotional 
exploration with inventions like Dementors, Boggarts, and the 
Imperius Curse.
