Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix By SweetMeg214 on Sep 21, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the fifth book in the Harry Potter series, as well as the longest. This is mainly because so much activity takes place outside of the Hogwarts grounds, which we are so familiar with after reading four books that takes place within its walls. This book was frustrating to me, but only because of how well it was written. The character of Dolores Jane Umbridge is wonderfully written, in all of her painfully annoying glory. From her very first introduction at Harry's underage use of magic trial, to her introduction - or interruption (hem hem) at Hogwarts, you can tell she is going to be a pain in Harry and company's neck through out the entire story. And boy is she. Not only does she ban Harry from EVER playing quidditch again, she appoints Draco Malfoy the head of an Inquisitor Squad. The nerve of that woman! There are many events that play out during Order of the Phoenix, including the death of Sirius Black, which has a serious impact on Harry. However, whenever I think about this book, I see Dolores Umbridge, in her kitten covered office, drinking too-sweet tea and plotting on how to make Harry's life miserable. She definetly takes the cake in this book.
