Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Oh dear. I've been chugging along with Harry Potter, generally enjoying the experience although not falling in love. (Which isn't to say they aren't good – they are exceptionally well written and well crafted, but they just aren't really for me.) But this one. This one was too much for me. Throughout the series so far, I've enjoyed the world-building elements the most along with the wizardy capers. But I'm not one for a lot of peril, and as the series continues, everything just becomes more and more perilous, and there is much less of the wizardy fun that I enjoyed in the earlier books. My favorite parts were when Harry visited the Ministry of Magic and when the whole crew went to St. Mungo's.
