Summary: WOW ....what a great book!
Review: J.K. Rowling did an outstanding job on the characters, how they said beleivable things, they were smart, and did smart things. She also made the places they went to have such good names like Diagon Alley, Hogwarts, and Knockturn Alley.I liked how Harry is famous, and Hermione is the smart one. Hermione likes Gilderoy Lockhart but Harry is always the one that has to go up in front of the class and do impressions of the werwolfs etc that Lockhart fought.I also like how the defense against the dark arts job is supposed to be cursed. I definitely reccomend this book! This book is a mystery, but it is not your classic Whodunit? mystery. It includes suspense and excitement that only J.K. Rowling can brew up in her cauldron. The addition of the wide eyed, self disciplining Dobby was a good side mystery. Lockhart's arrogance is not written very believeably but it fits in perfectly. The irrepressible trio(Ron, Harry, and Hermione)once agian have to face the challenging subtle life of a magical kid.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Harry Potter is the best book ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: "Just As Good As The First One"
Review: J.K. Rowling did not disappoint on her second Harry Potter adventure. This time Harry and company are faced with students being turned into living statues, a monster running amuck and rumors of the Heir of Slytherin returning to claim what resides in the Chamber of Secrets.

I really thought Harry would have a better time in this book, after all the confidence and friends he gained in the first book. But it turns out Harry's life is even worse Book Two. His aunt and uncle (who were no gems in the first book) are utterly abomidable here. Right off the bat Harry is in trouble with the faculty and his fellow students think he has something to do with all the strange happenings. Harry still has some of the awkwardness of the first book, but when the situation calls for it, he is able to put his fears aside and do what needs to be done.

Excellent job with the characters. The new teacher, Gilderoy Lockhart, is an egomaniacl blowhard who believes too much of his own good press. Really annoying guy, especially to Harry. Rowling also presented us with more of the Weasley family, and what life is like for your "typical" wizard family just trying to get by. Lots of plot twists and no slow parts. Look forward to Book Three.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I'm 16 but I still got addicted!
Review: J.K. Rowling had an awesome way of putting together an extremely strong plot to her books. I've read the first three and am anxiously awaiting the 4th one. If you loved stories like the Chronicles of narnia you'll be facinated with Harry Potter. No matter how old you are these books will be entertaining and you will not regret reading them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: HARRY POTTER RULES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: J.K. Rowling has done a better job on Book 2 than book 1. The plot is better, the story's better. It's all good. Read this book.

There's a lot of great folklore in this book. For example, the mandrake root, the hand of glory, and a basilisk. And it's all worked into a good story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent book sequel!
Review: J.K. Rowling has done it again with magical flying colors! This is about the second year of Harry potter's adventures, he's escaped from his blackhearted aunt and uncle back to Hogwarts but he has been warned by a house-elf named "Dobby" not to go back but he didn't listen, now the students are mysteriously dying and only Harry can find his way to the mysterious Chamber of Secrets.

Excellent sequel to the original modern classic book, it's a very entertaining and thrilling book different from the movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another Success
Review: J.K. Rowling has done it again! Chamber of Secrets is even funnier than the first with even more surprises. I recommend this, or any of his other adventures to any reader with a hungry imagination. Harry is a wonderful escape from the daily pace!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent book!
Review: J.K. Rowling has done it again! I thought that the first book was extremely wonderful, but this one was at least as good, and possibly better. Harry has an extremely exciting school year, and there's even a time when he wonders if he, Harry, is really the heir of Slytheryn as almost everyone thinks. This is an excellent book even for those who do not like to read!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another winner!
Review: J.K. Rowling has done it again! This book picks right up where the first one leaves us. The thing I like most about this series is that the characters are so believeable...well, not in the magical sense, but personality-wise. I can see shades of old classmates (and current co-workers, friends, etc.) in every single character. I cannot say enough about Harry Potter! Young, old, urban, rural...read these books! Also check out The Chronicles of Narnia if you haven't already...it is the prelude to the Harry Potter series, in my book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Action, adventure, and a bit of morality!
Review: J.K. Rowling has hit the mark, perhaps a much wider mark than originally intended, with her adventures of Harry Potter. My 11 year-old son and I love the adventures at Hogwarts. We finished both books inside of one week and can't wait for the next one. Rowling has created a magical other-world complete with it's own language and idiosynchrosies. Harry and his friends are true heroes for us all.
