My Harry Potter Highlight!! -=Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows=- After reading the book, I was satisfied with how it ended.. The twist of the story was amazing.. And I have my favorites on that book 1) the silver doe 2) when harry found out that he is actually the last descendant of the real owners of the deathly hollows 3) the elder wand was in Dumbledore's hands 4) the revelation of the last horcrux.. I wanted to read it over and over again and now I'm hoping that the last Harry Potter movie will not be a disappointment for harry potter Fans.. And from the news by the way, the last of the seven series will be divided to two in the movie version and i think that they are currently filming it right now..
Correct me if I'm wrong about the saga thing..lol And in the choices for the poll, i don't have a negative choice because I don't think that nobody would ever say they don't like any of the book...

"Saga" is a perfectly good word to use. whee Normally, it pertains to the heroisms of a family (going down through generations) rather than one person, but it isn't technically wrong in this instance. It means any narrative or legend of heroic exploits according to Dictionary.com.
Since you have that wonderful poll up, I think that a good question to ask is:
WHICH HP BOOK DO YOU LIKE BEST?
I love Order of the Phoenix the most because:
1) After so many books of me wondering, I FINALLY found out why Voldemort tried to kill Harry! Everyone always said how amazing it was Harry survived the Killing Curse, but I wanted to know why Voldemort wanted Harry dead in the first place.
2) There has never been a fictional character that I've hated more than Dolores Jane Umbridge. It takes good writing to get that much rage out of me.
3) Snape's Worst Memory is in it, and that is my FAVE CHAPTER IN THE ENTIRE SERIES because we see all of the Marauders, Lily, and Severus as teenagers. Complete greatness!
4) Luna. 'Nuff said. biggrin
5) It's the book with the most implied Sirius/Remus!
PoA is a close second favourite because:
1) Remus! Oh my god, I heart him so much! This is the book when he's seen the most often, and I never tire of reading the scenes with him it in this novel because he's so pleasant and wonderful.
2) I learned about the Marauders! I found their loyalty to each other (with the becoming animagi and such) particularly touching and interesting.
3) The twist at the end surprised me the most. JKR threw me for small loops with the culprits of previous books being Quirrel and Riddle, but it being Ron's rat really took the cake!

I agree with Minerva about why I like OotP and PoA. I don't really think there is anything to add, except in PoA, Harry inflates Aunt Marge.
Goblet of Fire: -The whole concept of making friends with foreign wizards -The twist with Moody -The entire graveyard scene -The Triwizard Tournament -Cedric -The Quidditch World Final
Sorcerer's Stone: -The obstacles blocking the Stone, how each one used what they knew to get closer to the Stone. -Quidditch -Oliver Wood -The Mirror of Erised
Chamber of Secrets: -The diary with Tom Riddle's memory. -The basilisk -Gilderoy Lockhart-he absolutely cracks me up because he can't do magic to save his life, but everyone thinks he can...oh the irony. -The scene in the Chamber of Secrets
Deathly Hallows: -Nagini hiding inside Bathilda Bagshot -George's really bad ear joke -Bill and Fleur's wedding -Snape's memories-my all-time fave part of the whole book. -The horcruxes and hallows-how they ended up tying into each other -The scene before Harry goes into the forest with the Resurrection Stone
Half-Blood Prince: -The big fight at the end -The confrontation between Harry and Snape in the end. -Slughorn -Potions lessons -The memories Dumbledore showed Harry -The cave when they get the necklace -Dumbledore's funeral
