Can you mention some of them? It will be funny find a lot of them now that the saga has ended.

In the second book, Snape finds Harry and Ron who arrive late at school. In the sixth book Harry arrives late at school and has to go at the castle with him.
Anyways, 5-7: Ministry of Magic/Umbridge.
Harry and Ron argument ;-)
We see Krum and Fleur. Plus Harry and Ron have a fight. Also, in GoF LV rises and in DH he dies. MoM scenes, too.
Harry victorious at the end. A clue about how the saga will end.
Priori Incantatem.
Book 7- Ron sees his deepest fears in the locket horcrux on Christmas night.
(I forgot who stated this, but I do remember reading it somewhere.)

I think that there is similar connections across in all of them. Like in 2 and 6 which are the second and the second to last. We first learn part of Voldemort's past in CoS and then learn more of his history in HBP. Harry defeats the first horcrux in CoS and then Dumbledore destorys the second in HBP and they learn what they are. Then in 3 and 5, Harry learns about Sirius and thinks he is trying to kill him and finds his godfather and then in 5 they become close and Harry ends up losing Sirius.
It is like the story that began in each parallel book begins and ends with those books. The story that began in 3 ends in 5, the story that began in 2 ends in 6, and the story that began in 1 ends in 7.
and
7
Chamber of Secrets is used to destroy a horcrux
Hagrid´s motorbike :P just a random one

Then in 6. Draco uses the same vanishing cabinet to get into Hogwarts and the hand of glory to help the death eaters run through the darkness powder. And we learn more about Borgin and Burkes and how Voldemort work there for a time.
Also in 1 Harry first sees his parents in the mirror and then in 4 he is able to see them briefly and speak to them during the priori incantatem and then in 7 he speaks to them as they walk together in the forest again.
Ollivander appears in 1, 4, and 7.
Moaning Myrtle appears in the even books 2, 4, and 6.

2 and 6. The diary is introduced and destroyed in 2 and then we learn that it was a horcrux in 6.
Arogag the spider is shown being brought into the castle by Hagrid by the diary and then in 6 the spider dies and they show his burial.
Ginny is introduced in 2 and we find out she likes Harry and then in 6 Harry finally realizes he likes her and they get together.
EDIT: Decarus beat me to it.
The deluminator. Dumbledore uses it in 1 and then passes it on to Ron who uses it in 7.

1. Seven Potters.
2. Ministry Infiltraion
3. Godrics Hollow
4. Xenophilius Lovegood
5. Malfoy Manor
6. Gringotts
7. Battle of Hogwarts
1 and 7 feature more Order members and Death Eaters. They are both the biggest battles in the book. Harry and Voldemort face off in both of them.
2 and 6 both feature disguises and the trio trying to sneak in somewhere to steal a horcrux.
3 and 5 are the "close calls" where Voldemort almost gets there and gets them.

Until 5 Harry is always thinking that is like Snape could read in their heads ! In fact in the 5 we learnt that this is the case .
6- Harry understands the conversation between Morphin, Marvolo and one of the Ministry´s employees because he knows that language.
