Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling
5.0
God I love this book.
I know it's a divisive one in the series because Harry is so shouty but if you can't be angry after what he dealt with, when can you? I felt for him more than I did originally, maybe because I'm older and realised that he should never have had to deal with even 10% of that crap.
Dumbledore's explanation at the end of the book just made me angry, again I think because I'm an adult now. I can see through his pathetic excuses and claims of 'foreseeing this eventuality' when he bloody well orchestrated it. I'm not sure if it was intended but it's a good book that you can read over and over at nauseum and enjoy different meanings to scenes in the book.
