For some reason I feel like the sixth movie sticks out least in my mind? idk

The fifth book was probably my least favorite, but the sixth certainly wasn't the most stellar to me either. My perception of it is tainted though by the fact that a kid purposefully spoiled the ending for me though.

Awww the 5th book was my favorite by far (though I loved all the books.) Why was it your least favorite?

[diet_poison]

That's my recollection but I haven't read it in a long time. I've read all the books at least twice, but it's been several years...I should do a reread. (I am doing a movie re-watch so maybe I'll do a book re-read after that)

I think it had to do with Harry being super moody and the book just being overall much darker than the others...but in hindsight I don't think moody!Harry would bother me very much now, in fact I'd probably empathize with him quite a bit more. He was rather blown off after all.

The moody always made sense to me given what he went through in book 4. And then he wasn't at all moody in book 6 and that made so much less sense. I have to tell myself that he was burying his feelings, because otherwise it seems like he didn't care about Sirius at all.

you might like it a lot more if you reread it! Both of my parents really disliked OotP their first read-through, but loved it the second. It's definitely a... frustrating book. Harry spends a lot of it moody and shut out of everything. But I personally think it's the strongest of the series because Harry's reactions to everything really ring true in a way that they don't in the last two books.

[(Anonymous)]

Empathizing may not necessarily help. I definitely understood why Harry was so angry in the fifth book, and felt for him, but that didn't really make it enjoyable to read a book filtered through that mindset.

(It was the opposite for me, honestly - some of his reactions hit close enough to home to be genuinely discomforting to read.)
