Summary: Well written, intense,magnificent.
Review: Have you ever wondered about wizards and magic? This will give you an imaginitive idea, about how magic works. And you can forget about predicting what will happen next. This book has a very, weird, unpredictable ending at the end. You'll have to read the book to get to the ending, but you'll love it so much,(I assure you, you will not put this book down.) that you will get to the ending. My favorite author used to Roald Dahl, who was an acceptional author, but J.K. Rowling's book insired me to write my own story of magic, and she has also become my most favorite author. By the way, if you didn't know, I am talking about her first book, Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone, but I'm sure, once I read J.K. Rowling's new book, I will, and you will, love it just as I, and you did with the first one. (That is to say if you read the fisrst one. If not, I suggest you read it first, because you won't know what's going on.) :-)

Summary: Another Winner for Fans of Harry Potter
Review: Having finished the first Harry Potter book two nights ago I amalready finished this second book, and going to the library for thethird (can't get it fast enough). Harry, Ron, Hermonie and Draco are all back for their second year. This time they have added another member to the Weasley family at Hogsworth. Little sister Ginny, who is a bit smitten with Harry is finally old enough to be a "first year". I love the start of the book with summer vacation. It is hard to understand why everyone donesn't hate the Dursley's. I sure want to yell at their stupidity many times. But, alas Harry has Ron, Fred and George to thank for turning around his vacation. This year not only do they have more homework, but they have to contend with something that is turning the students into stone. Can the group figure out who is doing this? Can you figure out who it is before the book tells you? If you like the Madeline L'Engle books, or the Black Cauldron Series, this series is a must for you! (Adults and kids alike)

Summary: Second Potter Adventure Easily Meets Standards of the First!
Review: Having gotten a copy of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets early, from England, I am delighted at the satisfaction it has brought me as a reader. Harry Potter has returned to Hogwart's Academy, ready for new adventures with his pals. However, Harry has no idea what his second year at the academy has in store. From meddling house elves to murderous grudges, The Chamber of Secrets is a wonderful read. If nothing else, Rowling's story has raised the bar of expectation for her next release! I love it! Five stars is an understatement.

Summary: Absolutely Wonderful
Review: Having read all 4 books, more than once, The Chamber of Secrets has to be the best Harry Potter book (next to The Goblet of Fire). It has adventure and comedy, and all things a reader would want in a book. You can't just stop reading it, you have to read it all the way through. And then you have to read it again and again. And each time, you discover something new about the book that you missed earlier. J.K. Rowling is a literary genious. The books are said to be for readers aged 12, but as a 15 year old I feel no embarrassment when telling people about these books, but feel slightly mad when I hear that these books get called boring and occult-ish when reviewed by 50 year olds that read The Wall Street Journal for fun. You have to buy these books.

Summary: FANTASTIC-MAGICAL-WONDERFUL READING
Review: Having read the first Harry Potter adventure, I couldn't wait to go buy "Chamber of Secrets". I am not an avid reader (I'm usually surfing the Web), but the Harry Potter series has me entranced. I couldn't put the book down until I had finished. I have already started no.3 and I'm wishing there were more. This book was just as good or better than the first. Harry is maturing and his wizardry skills are improving. Thus creating the opportunity for great adventures! You feel you are right there with Harry. It is so much fun to read Ms. Rowling's creation. I hope she continues to fill our literary lives with Harry Potter.

Summary: Even better then the first one!
Review: Having read the first Harry Potter book, i.e., Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Book 1)(and absolutely loving every, page, paragraph and line); then reading part II was the natural conclusion. To my utter surprise, part II, i.e., Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Book 2) by J. K. Rowling, Mary Grandpre (Illustrator) is even better. The character development is stronger; the story is more laced with rich descriptions and a storyline that is very enticing indeed. I totally and fully understand, why Harry Potter has become such a hero for young and older children; he has good manners, fortitude, resolve, dedication and bravura. I would definitely recommend this to any person (regardless of age) and I do think that one can (and should) see Rowling as the best storyteller since the Brothers Grimm.

Summary: Great for All above the age of 9
Review: Having read the other two books with Harry Potter, I was aware of the caliber of this writer. I was anticipating a good book and was pleased and very happy to find that this one was just as good and interesting as the others. This is one of several author's I recommend to other mothers for their children who like to read Science Fiction. It's great to find books without cursing and someone else's nightmares in them. Keep up the good work.

Summary: get the audio too, Jim Dale is GREAT
Review: Having read the series, and being familiar with Jim Dale from Pete's Dragon (Doc Terminus), we were really looking forward to the books on tape. Better than expected, have bought them all. Even if you or your child has read the books, get the tapes and listen, share this experience together. His charactures are wonderful and bring alive the charactures without losing the imagination that will happen with the movie version(s?).
