I really like all of them, but my personal least favorite was "Goblet of Fire", mainly because it felt too episodic. I recall not being nuts about "Chamber of Secrets" the first time I read it, but I like it more now.

chamber of secrets was my least favorite. I used to hate #5, but the more i read it, the more i like it. I love Umbridge in the sense that she's great to hate.

Personaly, I just couldn't STAND 6 and 7.
I mean, the 6th was sorta useless, pretty depressing, and basicaly pretty boring as well. And the 7th, excuse me for saying so, was just a waste of paper. I mean, come on!
Spoiler:
The three mystic objects that he alone can use to save the world? Snape being good after all (surprise, surprise!)? The I-am-the-noble-hearted-undead-guy-who-does-the-right-thing-and therefore-defeats-the evil-bad-guy?
So cliche. Not to mention
Spoiler:
that J.K.R killed off half the characters for practically no reason. Remus and Tonks, for example, had no reason to die.
Don't misunderstand me, I love bear a childhood-anchored liking towards* the Harry Potter books. That's just the reason I'm so mad about how it all ended. Big deception there :?
And on this cheerfull note, I wish you all a good day and go to sleep :D

*2.2.10 edit. I decided to reread the series from a mature point of view. Thank god for that.
The whole series seems like a comic book, not like something to be taken seriously. A TV cartoon, or a funzy, as someone once called them.

my least favorite HP book was goblet of fire... it seemed to drag on way too long... and that whole yule ball chapter was extremely unnecessary...

I started boycotting at book six, and haven't managed to read more then a few chapters, and lots of plot spoilers online. Never even looked at book Seven outside of online spoilers and info. I just couldn't stomach the books after number 3, and number five took away the only reason I was still reading them after book four anyways.
I smile because they haven't found the bodies yet.

As you all know, I despise them all with a passion. Book 6 I call the worst only because it was the official low point of the series, as it had all of the qualities I hate about the series in the 2nd greatest quantity. The only one more disgusting was book 7 (the only reason I hate 6 more was that 7 had that feeling of relief you get when something horrible finally comes to an end). The series got progressively worse and worse the longer it dragged on.

Book 7; She tried to do way to much in 1 book. It started to feel like an animorph book (not that its a bad thing, but its very different from the rest of series) with so much action that I felt rushed when reading it. She could have easily split it into 2 books and still would have enough material to make them shine.
