Oh, interesting! I remember it to be my favourite book, although the first three are special because... You know... Childhood, discovering the universe, idk, they'll always hold a special place in my heart. The fifth book had disappointed me somehow because I had LOVED GoF and was awaiting Voldy's return in full force and... Umbridge. Whereas I felt like HBP was like ~serious business, and I enjoyed the plot and subplots. Learning more about Voldy was fascinating, I liked the teenage love drama because it was not over-the-top but fun... The end with the Inferi was so fucking chilling, too! And then Dumbledore dying o-o This book was so much. Of course the Half-Blood Prince identity intrigued me and I guess it was important in that it contributed to what we learn of Snape beyond the "he was a Death Eater but he's redeemed" limited info we have until book 5-6. It attests to the fact that Severus is tremendously talented, creative, and dangerous. Idk about the title though, I think it's more of a question of what sounds well... I mean technically who cares about the Goblet of Fire? Logic would have dictated it to be called "HP and the Triwizard Tournament", no? What would you have seen as a better fitting title for book 6?
