In one of the most hotly anticipated sequel in memory, J.K. Rowling takes up where she left off with Harry's second year at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Old friends and new torments abound, including a spirit named Moaning Myrtle who haunts the girls' bathroom, an outrageously conceited professor, Gilderoy Lockheart, and a mysterious force that turns Hogwarts students to stone.

This book was good! Harry Potter is back at his favorite place- Hogwarts. He is happy to be back with Ron and Hermione. But things start to go wrong. Harry missed the train to Hogwarts, and he and Ron get in big trouble on the first day back. Things are still going wrong at Hogwarts. People are getting paralyzed, weird messages have been written in the corridors, and much more. And to make matters worse, their new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Gilderoy Lockhart, is the worst. Can Harry save Hogwarts-or at least get to the bottom of the problem? I give this book 5/5 stars! J.K. Rowling does it again by combining magic and friendship into this nerve wracking book. Happy reading!

I loved this book because It was very suspenseful and you get to meet two very awesome characters, Ginny, and Moaning Myrtle. Also it helps the next books connect. Lastly you get to meet one of the villain when he was a kid! I definitely recommend this book if you like fiction, magic, and you have read the first one.

I absolutely LOVE the Harry Potter books and movies. J.K. Rowling is REALLY REALLY filled with imagination. Chamber of Secrets is very nice both the movies and the book. The first few chapters really captures Ron and Harry's frienship! <3

Especially because he speaks parseltounge.

Yes I totally agree with you. I feel bad for Harry because everyone thought that he was the heir.
