Boy did I love Order of the Phoenix...What a terrific story!
In the chapter entitled "Beyond the Veil" there are 2 small passages 
that absolutely give me the goose bumps...the 1rst one is a 
demonstration of incredible solidarity and the other an example of 
Harry at his best:

S
P
O
I
L
E
R
1)... "Go on, then," said Harry, raising his own wand to chest 
height. As he did so, the five wands of Ron, Hermione, Neville, Ginny 
and Luna rose on either side of him...
Gives me chills just reading it! 
    
2)The other passage is when Bellatrix says:... "Let him watch while 
we torture the little girl. I'll do it"
Harry felt the others close in around Ginny; he stepped sideways so 
that he was right in front of her, the prophecy held up to his 
chest...

There are so many things to like about this more grown up Harry, as 
well as his circle of friends. I like the way that Ginny's character 
was developped, and Neville's too! And I now think that just maybe 
there will be a future for Ginny and Harry as a couple...who knows?
On a lighter note, I flew to Toronto today for a business meeting and 
the plane (and the airport) was full of business travellers reading 
Harry Potter book 5!
