Harry Potter is starting his second year at Hogwarts along with his two best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, and Ron's little sister is beginning her fi rst year. Not long after school started, Harry began to hear an odd whispering moving through the school. As he followed the sound with Hermione and Ron on his heels they came across a wall with the words "The Chamber of Secrets is Opened. Enemies of the heir; beware" along with the wheezy old caretakers cat hung by it's tail petrified. Sparking a series of odd events and petrified students. After Hermione is found petrified, with a note curlded in her fist reading only one word "basilisk", it is up to Harry and Ron to find the elusive Chamber of Secrets and stop whatever is within..

I have to say that all of the Harry Potter books are good. What I liked about this book is that it's always a whole new adventure. I also liked that in the end Harry saves Rons sister Jenny from the evil voldermont. Theres nothing that I can say that I don't like about this book. This book is just great, if you haven't read the Harry Potter books go and read them. I like how Harry faces problems but eventually overcomes it and accoplishes whatever needs to be accomplished. To me these books would be a good read for both girls, boys and adults because they just seem so relateable. There not really kids books but there not really adult books either there sort of in between.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is awesome. Harry is in his second year at Hogwarts Witchcraft and Wizardry and trouble seems to follow him everywhere. A new friend Dobie, the house elf, greets Harry. Getting him into trouble with Uncle Vernon and grounded from every going to Hogwarts again. But a simple grounding couldnt keep Harry from hes beloved school and home. Ron and hes twin brothers help Harry escape the Dursleys house and fly him back to Rons home in an every interesting way of transportation. Ron and Harry get into more trouble before they even reach Hogwarts. Hermione joins up with them and the laughs of a new year beings but it doesnt stay that way for long. If you liked the first, you'll love the second.
