The most popular moment in last month's OotP poll was the time when Fred and George left Hogwarts, right under Umbridge's nose, telling the students where to get their supplies to not only continue advancing their Weasley Wizard Wheezes business but also to continue the rebellion against the likes of Dolores Umbridge and her authoritarian style of Ministry leadership.

But now it is the next academic year. Fred and George are no longer present through much of the book. And yet there are some funny and most delightful moments, which may or may not be in the films. Please let us know which of these moments were your favourites, and why. What moments did you really dislike?

What do you think of the characters in this sixth part of the Harry Potter saga? How did you feel about Horace Slughorn? And what do you think of the characters met through Dumbledore's memories or on top of the Lightning Struck Tower?

Let us know which moments and characters you voted for and why.

I know the Sectumsempra scene was a choice in the "not to like section" but it was actually my favourite scene in the whole book. I found it very interesting to have Harry as the villain and I also did conect to Draco in a way I'd never done in any previous book. He became more three-dimensional.

Harry's guilt trip after this scene was interesting too. Harry had finally been able to get to Draco, and then he did something so horrible that it took the pleasure away.

This was also the scene where one started to wonder who the half blood prince really was. Up to this point I'd been with Harry and thought that Hermione was just paranoid and jelaous about the whole thing with the book. Here, I started to wonder if she wasn't right.
