I also loved meeting the character of Lupin and getting to know Sirius more after his appearance in The Chamber of Secrets. Trelawney was a funny character as well, and I love that having read all of the series, it is now possible to read the clues is The Prisoner of Azkaban that establish the important role she has already (and unknowingly) played in Harry's life.
Harry, Ron and Hermione's school life became much more exciting with the introduction of their electives. I loved how Hermione kept brushing the boys off when they asked her about her busy timetable - she is so marvellous the way she can be so haughty and supercilious with them when at the same time she is concealing a big secret.
The way that we get to live through the end of the story for a second time but from a different angle (if not a different perspective) makes the ending a fabulous one.
The Prisoner of Azkaban is one of the best books of the series.
