- It finally arrived! Alice joined me in a video for the first time in a while haha. Love this edition, it’s massive so probably doesn’t have as many illustrations as you might think. It was so big that there were two illustrators this time around.

The size of this book is immense! To be expected since Order of the Phoenix is the biggest book in the series haha. Love this edition, it's really beautiful.
Great video I have added all 5 of these illustrated books they are a wonderful addition to anyone collection .I’m looking forward to book 6 and 7 being completed to add to my collection.
Wonderful! Same here.
Absolutely beautiful book, I mean all 5 look so good! I love that the books are a bit darker than the movies and it takes me back to childhood when I would listen to stories, but the original versions that have been censored more and more throughout the years. Know what I mean?
To me the most beautiful Harry Potter books are the deluxe slipcased edition of Jim Kay's version and the MinaLima series. For me these two are mind-blowing, I get tears in my eyes every time I see them in videos. Maybe it seems extreme that I would be this overwhelmed just by looking at them, but it's like when my inner child sees them she just bursts out laughing and giggling. ☺️
It's definitely a gorgeous book. I really want to re-read the books, it's been around 5 years since I last read them all. I definitely know what you mean.
I remember deciding to re-read Order of the Phoenix when I was in high school, and Harry was taking his exams the same time I was taking mine. I remember reading about him studying under a tree next to the Great Lake while I was in my garden at my mum's studying for mine. Vivid memory that takes me back to when I was a teenager :)

@@LeeJ2512 Seeing this book and Hagrid made me remember the passing of Robbie Coltrane. May God rest his soul. 😔
I'm surprised Kay went with the movie-esque "squished between two Muggle families" 12 Grimmauld Place.
Yeah same here tbh. He's said he's not carrying on illustrating the books so it'll be other artists apparently. Don't blame him if he's been working on these non stop for like 6 years haha.
Great review! 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Hello! wands from Fantastic Beasts and Dumbledore's Secrets are out, will they be on your channel?
Hello! Not sure yet, normally I get all the wands at once when the new film comes out, but not sure I can justify spending £300 on wands haha. I'll probably get my favourite ones rather than all of them this time.
@@LeeJ2512 Ok, I understand, I will wait.
Hi i was wondering if you will do a Fantastic Beasts The Secrets of Dumbledore wand review like you did for the others. They released a lot this time, more than they did for the others I'm pretty sure so you don't even have to get them all. My favourites are Helmut's and Anton Vogel's. Also we finally got a Credence wand. Its a bit boring but I like it!
Hello, I was incredibly tempted but I made a community post about it. I can't afford all of them this time unfortunately, but I HAVE ordered two of my favourites :) I'll keep them a secret but they'll be arriving soon.
@@LeeJ2512 thats understandable and im very exited to see the two that you ordered!
The artwork cover is of: members of Dumbledore's Army, practising their Patronuses, in the Room of Requirement at Hogwarts.
Ahh yeah surprised that I didn't realise at the time.
Really nice edition. Unfortunately the story of it is the weakest of all.
Oh really? Why do you say that? I have fond memories of the fifth book, think it's my second favourite after Half Blood Prince. Yeah Harry was a bit of a buzzkill in this one but I think there were genuine reasons for it.
