#Ranking the Harry Potter Series

[MichaelNadal]

What do you think are the best-worst books in order?

 

[Noveson]

Best was Prisoner of Azkaban I think. Worst was Order of the Phoenix? I believe that's the one that dragggggged for the first half o the book. But really The 2nd book or the 4th book have to be near the top as well.

 

[Vcore89]

Prisoner of Azkaban, Half Blood Prince, Deathly Hallows Part 2, Chamber of Secrets, Philosopher's Stone, Order of the Phoenix, Goblet of Fire & Deathly Hallows Part 1.

 

[Noveson]

Prisoner of Azkaban, Half Blood Prince, Deathly Hallows Part 2, Chamber of Secrets, Philosopher's Stone, Order of the Phoenix, Goblet of Fire & Deathly Hallows Part 1.

Intentional ha?

And are you meaning to list the movies instead of the books?

[MichaelNadal]

I'm talking about the books as far as the thread goes.
I think for me:

Prizoner of Azkaban
Order of The Pheonix
Deathly Hallows
Half-Blood Prince
Goblet of Fire
Chamber of Secrets
Sorcerer's Stone

Exactly! Based on the movies. Might I add, Philosopher's Stone shouldn't be relegated to worst no matter what.

Oops, my apologies @MichaelNadal.

Why I bolded that was because it's called SORCERER'S stone. Not Philosopher's hahah.

Goblet of fire
Prisoner of azkaban
Half blood Prince
Philosophers stone
Chamber of secrets

[Noveson]

Order of the phoenix
Deathly hallows
Goblet of fire
Prisoner of azkaban
Half blood Prince
Philosophers stone
Chamber of secrets

My mistake, I just googled it. It's Sorcerer's in the US, never considered/saw that it had another name elsewhere.

 

[Topspin Shot]

Deathly Hallows
Philosopher's Stone
Prisoner of Azkaban
Order of the Phoenix
Half Blood Prince
Goblet of Fire
Chamber of Secrets

GOF,OOTP,HBP,COS,DH,POA,PS. Hard to put PS at the bottom, it certainly wasn't bad. HP the best book series for me. Been a while since I read them, was totally obsessed with the books in my teenage years.

 

[LeeD]

I read #1 and #2 because it was good reading.
After 50 pages of #3, I was hooked. Harry just needed to grow up a bit to become a real character.

Exactly, 3 is good right from the start and It's where the series really takes off a real page-turner.

OoP>PoA>DH>GoF>HBP>PS>CoS

This is a great list btw. Order of the Pheonix is outstanding.

 

[magdalenapratt]

I think it is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7. I feel that J.K. added too many unnecessary extra scenes or dialogues towards the end just to make the book thicker and thicker.

It is like Samsung or LG adding too much bloatware in their new phones.

I almost wanna read em again after this bump. Been 10 years since I've read em

Yeah it was 10 years for me too, until I read DH a couple of nights ago lol

DH is the movie im most dissappointed with, it doesn't capture the epicness of the book at all to me it has great moments (both parts) but they changed so much, like the final battle etc that made it flat :/

Voldemort just seemed way too human and less scary for me.. Especially trying to hug Draco Malfoy *shudder*

 

[MurraysMetalHip]

Tough question, but I think I’d have to rank them all at #7

 

[megamind]

1) Harry Potter and the Sureshian Stone
2) Goblet of Fire
3) Order Phoenix
4) Half Blood Prince
5) the rest

 

[megamind]

You are incorrect

it is the Sureshian Stone

I grew along with the time these books came out in my part of the world. I outgrew the books after I finished the fourth. I vaguely recall to have enjoyed the fourth (I think Goblet of Fire) the most.
