Best to worst, here goes:Prisoner of Azkaban 9
Chamber of Secrets 8
Goblet of Fire 8
Sorcerer (philosopher)'s Stone 7
Order of the Phoenix 7
Deathly Hallows 6
Half Blood Prince 3 (actually had trouble finishing this one)
Why didn't you like the Half Blood Prince?
Too long. Too much romance. And it was mostly in flashback. I hate flashback UNLESS it's done to give info, not to tell a story. Because it's pretty much a dream. None of the characters are in any danger.What's YOUR ranking?
I actually haven't read half of the books yet. I love Harry Potter but am new to the books. I'm sort of currently reading the Prisoner of Azkaban and have read the first two. Don't be like 'YOU HAVEN'T?!?'- it doesn't matter whether I have or not.Well here is what I have so far in my book experience:
Sorcerer's Stone- 8
Chamber of Secrets- 7
Really? I thought Sorcerer's Stone was kinda slow and by Chamber of Secrets Rowling had gotten into the flow of things; the beginning wasn't as slow.
What makes the Prisoner of Azkaban 9? And I'm not exactly sure for the Sorcerer's Stone, I read it a year or two ago. But from what I remember it was really good!
Well, I liked the mysteries involved. Plus, it was about the perfect length, in my opinion.
1 being the best:1. Hallows
2. Prisoner
3. Prince
4. Sorcerer
5. Phoenix
6. Goblet
7. Chamber
Stone 10/10Prisoner 9.8/10
Chamber 9.6/10
Goblet 9.5/10
Prince 9.4/10
Hallows 9.3/10
Order 9/10
I liked the Order least because it is so dark and depressing, and Harry just seems mad all the time.
Oh wow, the minimum is 9. Thanks CabinSixGryffindorEOW!
Well, all of the Harry Potter books are fantastic, even the ones that aren't as good as the others. :)

Best to worst (1 to 10):
Sorcerer's Stone (2)
Chamber of Secrets (3)
Order of the Phoenix (4)
Prisoner of Azkaban (5)
Deathly Hallows Part 1 (6)
Deathly Hallows Part 2 (7)
Half Blood Prince (8)
Goblet of Fire (10)
Inspite of not entirely conforming to the books, I really enjoyed the first two films, simply because of the atmosphere they were able to capture. It was eerie, mysterious, and overall magical. The ones which came afterwards seemed more aligned to the whimsy of the books, yet for me made the films feel two-dimensional.
The Prisoner of Azkaban got most things right, but the one that came afterwards- The Goblet of Fire- was easily the worst in the... is it saga? ...Anyway, you couldn't take anyone seriously with their excessive hairstyles, nor could you take Voldemort seriously with his lack of nasal-based breathing capabilities. Dumbledore's crankiness was also difficult to find patience with... and the band playing "Can You Dance like a Hippogryph?" at the ball... the list goes on.
The films improved afterwards, so overall they did fairly well. There were little issues I had, but then since each person seems to think of the series a little differently, I suppose that's inevitable. At least it didn't turn out like Eragon, or The Battle of the Five Armies.
