In Harry's second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he encounters many more adventures then his first year. It opens as the previous installment did, at the Dursleys. In this opening, we are introduced to a very interesting character by the name Dolby, who will come into more use later in the series. The descriptions of this house-elf are remarkable. Dolby warns Harry not to return to school because all of the students will be in extreme danger. He then causes a large dessert to fall onto someone's head as a threat to not go back. In this scene we get the first glimpse into the Ministry of Magic, because Harry receives a warning for using underage magic. Consequently, Harry finds himself grounded in his room locked from the outside living on cold soup. Then one night he hears a rumbling sound outside his room and who is there but his school friend Ron and his group of zany brothers in a flying car. Harry is then whisked away to the Wesley's known as the Burrow, out of his aunts and uncles grips for the remainder of the summer. School appears to be starting as normal but just as Harry and Ron are about to enter the barrier at Kings Cross it appears to have been sealed. There only option to get to Hogwarts is to take the flying car. When they arrive at school they encounter the Womping Willow, a not so peaceful tree. Lessons begin the following day introducing yet again another Defense Against the Darks Arts professor. He is an eccentric at times flaky person, who is so wrapped up in his stardom.
In this second year, Harry encounters a crazy house elf, flying cars, polyjuice potion, as well as a monster in the depths of the school. Read this amazing book filled with adventure. This book will prove to be very important if you are considering continuing on in the book. Pay attention to small details, this will come in handy in the future. |

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets continues Harry Potter's life in the wizarding world! This book is an amazingly written book, including shocks, surprises, and loads of humor! This eye-grabbing and mind-boggling book is one of the best books I have ever read! Harry returns to Hogwarts for his second term, but what awaits him there is defiantly not what he had expected. Gossips about a chamber within Hogwarts spread, but is it just a joke passed around students, or is it a real chamber with horrors within it? I really enjoyed this book a lot, for it is well written just like its prequel. When you read a few sentences, the book hooks you to it, and you can be reading for like, two hours and not notice that you have read for that much! This book was not was good as the first, but it is still an amazing book, with its humor, mysteries, and magic! This book is the kind of book you can read a countless number of times without getting bored! I have read this book at least ten times, and when I come read it again, I am still interested and enthusiastic about reading it! Well recommended! |
