Spoilers, obviously.



Order of the Phoenix:

Harry and tha krew meet the Order of the Phoenix, a group of people fighting against the Death Eaters in secret, headquarted in Sirius Black's family home. The Ministry of Magic have taken a stand that Harry was lying about Voldemort's return, and gradually take over Hogwarts through super evil Dolores Umbridge (punishes Harry by making him write "I will not tell lies" thousands of times with a magic quill that carves the words into his hand). Ends with the reveal of Sibyl Trelawney's prophecy about Harry and Voldemort (one cannot live while the other does, one will eventually kill the other) and the death of Sirius Black.



Half-Blood Prince

Snape is the Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor. The kids are all raging with hormones - Ron dates Lavender, Hermione is jealous, Harry and Ginny start their thang. Harry cheats his way through Potions by using secret notes in his textbook written some time in the past by a former student called the Half-Blood Prince. Ends when Dumbledore takes Harry to destroy the first Horcrux - Dumbledore has to drink a bunch of poison and it turns out that the ring has already been found/destroyed; they arrive back at Hogwarts and Snape reveals himself to be the Half-Blood Prince, *SPOILER* kills Dumbledore.

Ok here it goes (deep breath):

Book 5: Harry finds about an order that is against Voldemort and evvery good guy is in. His parents were in it. Harry has an unimportant trial over dementors and is cleared. At hogwarts a mean chick took over and ruins the whole thing. Harry and the gang (gang being ron, hermoine, ginny, neville, and luna) start an underground defense against the dark arts class. Mean chick gets wind of it and tries to fire dumbledore. He dissapears. Harry gets a vision sirius is in trouble so the gang goes to the ministry to fight Voldemort. Long story short sirius gets killed dumbledore shows up and voldemort runs. The public is then aware voldemort is back.



Book 6: Death eaters are doing bad stuff everywhere. Harry and dumbledore do research on Voldy. Harry also gets the Half Blood Princes textbook who turns about to be snape. Dumbledore finds out that voldy made horcruxes. They make him immortal. Dumble and Harry track one down and try to destroy it, only it was fake. When they get back to hogwarts the deatheaters are there and snape kills dumble dore. In the end harry decides to skip his seventh year and track down horcruxes

book 5: The ministry takes over, dumbledore gets kicked out, and Dolores Umbridge gets brought in (shes an utter *****). harry has bad dreams because he can for some reason see into voldemorts mind, he has a dream that sirius was in trouble so he goes to the department of mysteries to save him, only to fall into a trap. Sirius dies :(



book 6: Dumbledore gives harry little lessons to make him more able to beat voldemort, and shows him various memories. They go on an adventure to defeat a horcrux, and dumbledore ends up dying.

But seriously - reread them. I read the whole series once a year, and it is well worth it. short summaries defeat the whole purpose, and much of the 7th book relies on the 6th book.

Order of Pheonix



In the beginning, two Dementors show up in the town of Little Whinging and attack Harry and his cousin, Dudley. When Harry uses magic to drive them off, however, he quickly receives a succession of owls from the Ministry, requiring him to attend a disciplinary hearing. His heart sinks when he reads that the question of whether to expel him from Hogwarts will be decided at the hearing.

Harry is exonerated at the hearing but when Harry finally manages to make it back to school, he finds things are different than when he left. Hagrid's not there, there are skeletal horses pulling the school carriages that only he can see, and the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is none other than toadlike, repulsive Dolores Umbridge, a Ministry representative whom Harry is all too familiar with.

Nobody believes Harry or Dumbledore when the say Voldemort has retuned.As the school year progresses Harry and Umbridge makes it really hard for Harry, she retaliates by taking away everything he cares about: Quidditch, letters from Sirius, and visits with Hagrid. So Harry fights back the only way he can, by forming a secret defense group, known as Dumbledore's Army, and teaching his friends how to fight properly.

In spite of the frantic workload in preparing for their OWLs (tests that determine the student's future career choices), the tyranny of Umbridge, and Harry's unbearable crush on Ravenclaw seeker, Cho Chang, Harry keeps having tantalizing dreams of dark corridors and locked doors that are distracting at best. His scar prickles constantly and he soon finds he's turned into a tiny antenna for Voldemort's mood swings, which certainly doesn't help his own temper.

Things take a disastrous turn when Dolores Umbridge finds out about Harry's secret defense group. Harry is filled with guilt when Dumbledore, claims credit for the group in order to protect Harry, and has to flee the school to escape arrest.

This installment ends with an epic battle of good and evil, resulting in a devastating loss to Harry when his godfather Sirius Black is killed, and the full revelation that his destiny lies intertwined with none other than Voldemort himself. In the end, Dumbledore reveals the lost prophecy to Harry: either Harry will kill Lord Voldemort or Voldemort will kill Harry.



Half Blood Prince



Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts opens to find him more mellow and grown up than ever. The death of Sirius Black has left an indelible mark on him, and he's more determined than ever to put an end to Voldemort and his Death Eaters. He's happy to escape the tyranny of the Dursley's early in the summer when Dumbledore picks him up to attend to a mysterious errand, which ends up in Harry's persuading ex-professor, Horace Slughorn, to come out of retirement to teach at Hogwarts again.



When the day finally arrives, Harry is as usual overjoyed to be back at school. He's been made Quidditch Team Captain. However, Harry and his friends are dismayed to find out that Professor Severus Snape has finally achieved his burning desire to become Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Harry is excited to be taking private lessons with Dumbledore this year, who is showing him all about Voldemort's past. Dumbledore hopes that knowing as much as he can about Voldemort will help Harry in his final battle with the Dark Lord.

He finds a book in potions class which belonged to thew Half Blood Prince and starts relying on it too much.

Harry also keeps an increasingly close eye on Draco Malfoy. Convinced that Malfoy has replaced his father as the head of the Death Eaters, Harry believes Malfoy is constructing a dark plot inside the school but can't for the life of him figure out what it is. Between Ron and Hermione's skepticism, and Malfoy's disappearances from the school grounds, Harry has his hands full trying to uncover what Malfoy's up to.

His lessons with Dumbledore continue sporadically, and he's excited to hear that he might be able to go with Dumbledore on a dangerous mission to help destroy a horcrux that contains a part of Voldemort's soul. Together they go on an adventure to find the horcruxes and when they return to Hogwarts they see the Dark Mark over the castle which ends in a big fight.



Hope this helped!
