Feelings on OoP

I've been wondering how everyone else is feeling about OoP now that we've had time to re-read it and let it sink in.  

For me, it didn't even feel like canon at first.  When I first finished it, I felt very emotionally drained, and had absolutely no idea how I felt about the book.  People kept asking me if it was good, and I kept replying, that I needed to read it again to figure it out.  I was so tense and anxious about the death, and so surprised about Harry's attitude!  It seemed such a downer.

I liked it much better the second time, and now that my daughters done with it, I'm going to start my third.  I'm going to pay particular attention to the cleaning scenes at Grimmauld Place.  There has to be something important in there.

The more I get used to OoP, the more I like it.  I love that Harry has more of a personality now!  

This is how I'd rank the books.

1. GoF
2. PoA
3. OoP
4. SS
5. CoS
