I find that kind of interesting, because OotP was by FAR my least favourite book (although I dislike it less now than I did on originally reading it). Like, a LOT. What did you like about it so much?
I think Neville was supposed to have pulled the sword out of the (on FIRE) Sorting Hat. But yeah, that was kind of weird. I didn't even notice it at first because I forgot the goblin had taken it. I guess . . . the Hat stole it back? Whatever.
I hate Ginny/Harry and I always will. I thought I was like the only one, besides the insane Harry/Hermione shippers.
Yeah, I know, but won't Griphook be pissed when the sword just vanishes on him? I took it to mean Godric Gryffindor didn't really steal it and it did belong to him. Or something. If that was the biggest plot hole, we're probably okay.
I loved OotP because it was the first time we really saw the cohesiveness of Voldemort. Before, he was always a threat, but all of a sudden we find that both sides are organized and shit really is going down. Lots of new, nifty characters. Umbridge especially - I love villains, and it takes a special kind of writing for me to really dislike one. Umbridge, I HATE Umbridge.
And for once, Ron is the special special! There's a decent chunk devoted to him, which is a nice change-up from Harrymania.
And God, yes, I loathe Ginny/Harry. I mean, wtf? It never seemed well written to me.
I totally agree with you on the muggle / mudblood registry thing. It reminded me of the idea of 'the banilty of evil' and (without trying to stretch it to much) the way eichman worked.
And I liked that the people who worked for the ministry now were the people who did before.
