The Definitive Ranking of All the Harry Potter Books From Best to Worst
The Sorcerer's Stone
This is our first introduction to the wizarding world of Harry Potter. We meet so many central characters to the book. We meet our famous trio and learn about Hogwarts. The first book is truly the kickoff and the nostalgia alone makes it my number 1 choice.
British author J.K. Rowling, creator of the Harry Potter fantasy series, points to the place on her forehead where her title character has a scar while reading “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” during the Easter Egg Roll on the South Lawn of the White House April 5, 2010 in Washington, DC.
The Prisoner of Azkaban
The 3rd installment in the series is my favorite movie interpretation! I only ranked the book in my 2nd position on the list because it’s hard to deny that the first book is what sets up the story and gets us hooked in the first place. I love the characters we meet that connect Harry to his parents and the storyline is one of my favorites.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was one of the better adaptations from book to movie as well.
The Deathly Hallows
Again, the 7th book is high on my list because of the storyline. So many of our questions are answered. This is the closing of our story. The book is massive but I remember reading through it like a breeze!
Harry Potter fans rush to read the opening lines of the new and final novel by author J.K. Rowling, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” during a fans day at The Carriage Works on July 21, 2007 in Sydney, Australia.
The Half-Blood Prince
The 6th book offered up a little more humor after some darker moments in the series. It was a really nice break for the brain and made me smile. Other memorable moments include learning about Voldemort’s younger years, meeting Professor Slughorn, and the setup that would lead us into the last book!
Shane Culver, dressed as Harry Potter, waited six hours to purchase the new Harry Potter book at Barnes and Noble in Union Square July 15, 2005 in New York City.
The Chamber of Secrets
Harry’s second year at Hogwarts is causing even more trouble! I love that he becomes a little more accustomed to what to expect from Hogwarts and the wizarding world around him. His friendships continue to solidify. And oh yeah, he can hear and talk to snakes!
Excited Harry Potter fan Sarah Smith holds a copy of “Harry Potter And The Chambers of Secrets” at Borders inside the Time Warner Center to celebrate the release of the book “Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows” on July 20, 2007 in New York City.
The Goblet of Fire
Ok hear me out… this book was LARGE! As a kid, holding a brick of a book in my hand for the first time seemed daunting. Even though I loved Harry Potter more than anything, the book took me forever to read at the time. As an adult, I’m a lot more lenient of the size of the books as they progress. That said, my only joy in this particular book came from meeting kids from other wizarding schools.
Andrew De Villier, 9, who could not wait to get home to begin reading the new “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” book, reads, July 8, 2000, in the Barnes & Noble bookstore in El Paso, Texas.
The Order of the Phoenix
Ah book 5. My absolute least favorite book. Harry Potter was just the worst kind of human in this book (we later find out for good reason…) He constantly had attitude and was just a moody teenager. It made it hard to be in his corner and root for him. Reading this book was like pulling teeth for me. Definitely my least favorite of the 7 books in the series.
