Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Book 2 Audio CD)

Rating:
Summary: A must read!
Review: I enjoyed this book more than the first Harry Potter book. J.K Rowling kept this book much the same with all the magical elements and many of the same characters, but at the same time she expanded this magical world by adding new characters, classes and teachers and made a new plot that is almost nothing like the first book. She even makes the Dursleys better by making them worse. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys sci-fi books and books with a magical plot and the use of magic.

Summary: This delightful book keeps you hanging on for more.
Review: I enjoyed this book thoroughly. It was as suspenseful and quirky as the previous one and so hard to put down that I read all 341 pages in a single day. Who wouldn't fall in love with Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger as they search Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from top to bottom for the mysterious monster that whispers to Harry and kills muggles, or non-magic folks, during the night. I highly recommend this novel. It is a delightful summer read!

Summary: muggles should not try to read magic
Review: I feel sad about all the muggles who don't get it. There is no hope for them, so the rest of us shouldn't be too hard on them when they don't like Harry. My very magical 79 yr.old Mom loves him. My 20 yr. old son loves him. My very cool 16 yr. old nephew loves him. I'm 54 and I love him. And,yes,we all would rather read than eat. The books are piled high and we have multiple copies of Tolkeins and Dahls and these books are right up there with the best of them.

Summary: hi
Review: I feel very sorry for anyone, no matter what age, who thought that this book was hard to read. I was very disappointed in this book, and yeah, maybe it's a kid's book so I shouldn't have gotten it, but with all the hoop and holler about it I thought it must be something special. Not so. This book is just like any old Hardy Boys or Sweet Valley Twins or Lloyd Alexander book I ever read in elementary school to pass the time. There's the little hero who can do no wrong and the loser bad guy who hates him for no reason and is, of course, the latest spawn in a long line of bad guys who were bad for no reason. Even Star Wars is better than this. Okay, so maybe if you are in elementary school it would be an alright read, but even then I can't understand getting THIS excited about it...

Summary: It Gets Better and Better!
Review: I fell in love with Harry Potter a couple weeks ago, and have since read the first and second books, seen the vastly inferior first and second movies, and am well into (more than half way) through the third. The second movie and second book were better than the first ones. But the books outpace the movies much more so than any other adaptation I've ever viewed, which I did not think was necessary. But on to the book.
This second book proves that Rowling was destined to be a story writer! Her plot twists and story line development are bleeding brilliant. Her character development wonderful to witness. I love her descriptions of things, so vivid and easily imagined!
Poor Harry seems to have just the worst fate with his family. Rowling makes it very easy to just despise the Dursleys and empathise immensely with our hero, Harry.
What's worse is that Harry seems to just have bad luck with being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and when he tries to explain things, it gets him into more trouble.
That Dobby character who does not help poor Harry as much as he'd like to believe he is, though he improves at the end, irritated the socks off me (and Harry) when first we meet him, and the subsequent times we meet him, but I must attribute this with wickedly clever writing skills. His origin seems to be something like a mix of Gollum and Yoda, dressed in a pillow case. Oddly, we do feel, if reluctantly, for the little fella's plight (3 guesses as to which family HE serves!)
Fabulous all around! Yay!
These are my kind of books! Where were these books when I was in 6th grade?? The fantastic-loving child in me thanks Rowling from the bottom of her heart!

Summary: My opinons may not count
Review: I felt that Chamber of Secrets was the best book ever written and I would wish every one in the world could read it.

Summary: Harry again finds himself with a dark secret to uncover.
Review: I find Rowling's writing style fun and entertaining. Her books are the only book that I have literally laughed out loud while reading. The novel is enthralling and impossible to put down once you've begun. I can't wait for the next...

Summary: Harry Potter saves the day!
Review: I first heard about the series from one of my friends, but was skeptical as to thinking it would be something I would enjoy. I am a teenager and assumed wrongly that this was another series for children, but I quickly found out why this book is such a hot seller! I didn't realise that a kid a year younger than me would capture my attention, but that's just what Harry Potter has done in all the books I have read. I instantly fell in love with Harry Potter and his crazy Hogwarts school for wizzards, and everyone with him. Book 2 is his second year at Hogwarts, and once again he is the team's Seeker for Quiditch, stuck with a bias Potions teacher, Professor Snape, and of course, Harry gets his chance to prove that once and for all he is a hero. I shared with him the triumphs and tribulations as he made his way in the wizzarding world of magic. Packed with new suprises about the characters, an intruging and explosive ending, this sequel was one that I literally couldn't put down!

Summary: It's the Best! There should be a law that you must read it!
Review: I first heard of Harry Potter when my teacher read the first one in class. I loved it! I thought that it was the best book. Boy, was I wrong. My teacher read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets to us and I was sitting at the edge of my seat. It had everything a story should have. Twists, turns, magic, and mystery. I can speak for my whole class in saying that J.K. Rowling should write 100 "Harry Potter" books.
