Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

As a whole, I actually liked this book more than Goblet of Fire, but there was such a level of protagonist centered morality that it made me very frustrated. And, I do truly hate the ‘chosen one', ‘prophesied one' kind of stories - so, that's contributed to some of my issues with this book because it has really come to the forefront.

I actually miss-typed when I said in one of my updates that the deaths in this series are ‘anti-climactic'. While it is true that they are handled in a boring, sweep-them-under-the-rug sort of way, they are never built up in story as being climactic. At least not so far. (Which reminds me, I wish people would label spoilers when they talk about at least the character deaths in this series, because while reading this book, I found out that two of my favorite characters get killed off in Deathly Hallows.)

I know there's more I wanted to mention about this book, but I've forgotten - so unless I really start complaining about the protagonist centered morality (which I totally could, and list many examples of) I really cannot think of what else I wanted to say.
