Summary: The magic's back!
Review: I read the first Harry Potter book voraciously,hoping the next ones would be as enchanting. Ms. Rowling delivers in this sequel. I haven't experienced such a child-like sense of wonder and joy from reading a book in years! This one is meant for all ages,not just children. Harry's a wizard,but has everyday problems just like us "Muggles". The Harry Potter series is fun and unique. Most 300 pg books aren't interesting enough to make you want to finish them in a day. And the Harry stories aren't Satanic,as some people say. I'm from a Christian family that's hopelessly devoted to them. No Harry fans have been reported practicing occult rituals. Parents don't have to censor these novels. They actually teach moral messages,but in a non-preachy way. If you want a book series that's guaranteed to be good,that you won't feel you've wasted days of your life on,try Harry Potter.

Summary: overhyped
Review: I read the first HP and thought. Huh? No big deal. Then I thought maybe I was mistaken and read the second and this is even less of a big deal. OK, I suppose kids with a short attention spann like all those things going on and it's probably great fun for them but as an adult (and after all, all these reviews seem to be from adults)I find it extremely shallow. I think the difference is this: Potters magic relates simply to changing things: this turnesinto that, cars can fly, and so on. But as I said, HP probably greatfor kids, obviously, they love it and I don't want to spoil their fun. But I would advise adults to look futher, deeper: magic isn't just hocus-pocus, abracadabra!

Summary: Wildly Exciting and Adventurous
Review: I read this book at my mothers request and I was blown away by it's creativity and story line. I got so wrapped up in it, that it only took me one day to read it. Rowling has a fascinating imagination and a nack for drawing in and holding the attention of her young audience. This is a great buy for you or your children, it has a great excitment that will apeal to all ages.

Summary: A Fantastic Book
Review: I read this book before I read the first Harry Potter book, and I knew from the beginning it would be good. When Harry goes back to Hogwarts, after being warned not to, everything seems perfect to him. But after a while, freaky things start happening, and Harry is in a lot of danger. Harry finds himself fighting for life miles under the school. This book is extremely good and I thinks it's even better than the first one.

Summary: Twists and turns, new characters, GOOD BOOK!
Review: I read this book for the second time several weeks ago in anticipation of Book 4. I was every bit as pleased and entertained (perhaps a bit more) as I was the first time around. These books have earned a place of honor on my most-loved book shelf."Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is the second in the series following Harry Potter at Hogwart's school of wizardry. In this book, we are served ample portions of our favorite characters and introduced to some new ones, most notably, Gilderoy Lockheart, the new celebrity professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. We learn some new things about Harry and the mystery surrounding Vold... You-know-who. This book is full of twists and turns, unexpected surprises, enemies you love to hate, and wonderfully entertaining fantasy. I would recommend this book to ANYONE (any age) who enjoys the writings of Roald Dahl, C.S. Lewis, Madeleine L'Engle, or J.R.R. Tolkien. This is a very fun, humourous, and enjoyable fantasy novel, and one that should be read more than once!

Summary: I really liked the book.
Review: I read this book in my class at Bowman Elementary in Anchorage, Alaska. It is about the Chamber of Secrets being opened and a lot of muggles ( that is what the magical people called regular humans) got petrified by the animal that lives in the Chamber of Secrets.

Summary: A book you'll read over and over again!
Review: I read this book in one day, and only took a break once, (I had to eat dinner). It was GREAT!!! I've read this book twice, and now that I know what happens in the end, it almost is more fun to read the second time because of all the fun clues to the crime in it. Everytime you read it, you feel like your in Hogwarts, watching it all happen. I could just see fat Dudley and self-absorbed Gilderoy Lockhart. Lockhart made me SO MAD! You have to read this book, and after that you have to read it again, it never gets old! :-)

Summary: THIS IS THE BEST BOOK I'VE EVER READ
Review: I read this book non-stop for 2.5 days, I didn't do much of anything else. It appeals to me because I always have longed for wizards to exist, and in Harry's world I can shed my muggle skin enter a world of magic and mayhem. J.K. Rowling is an absolute genius. All the stars in the night sky aren't enough to rate this book!
