harry potter has returned to hogwarts school of witch craft and wizardry for a second year.. and what a year it shall be! there is a dark force abounding in the grounds of the magical school, but not until the end of the book shall readers know just how sinsiter this new force is!

I dont think that there is any human being who doesnt like harry potter!! this series of books is absolutely amazing and they have made jk rowling a billionaire! so obviously they are good! this book esepecially has it is quite dark but also has a little bit of humour at the same time. i would definatley reccomend this book to you! this book is so good in the movie form 2

its so hard to choose a favourite in the harry potter series so i would recommend you to read them all. all worth the read and so hard to put down. The price is nothing compared to the enjoyment that you will get from reading this book. You definately want to purchase this book as you will be missing out if you dont

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is an excellent novel. It follows Harry and friends at their second year at Hogwarts the book builds brilliantly on the first book but is still awesome if you haven't read the first. Jk Rowlings writing style is something that will not be repeated for along time, exciting interesting and heart pounding. A good book for all ages.

this is a pretty good book in the series, yet lacks a certain something in my opinon. it tells of slytherins monster being released upon the school, which is in danger of closure due to many students being attacked. ron, hermione and harry must try to work out what is doing this to the poor students. a good read for fans.

Joanne Kathleen Rowling demonstrates her genius again with this second book in the famous Harry Potter series. From the very moment Ron appears in Harry's bedroom to bust him out of the Dursley's home, to the final triumphant defeat of the creature of the Chamber, this is pure magical fun

The 2nd harry potter book in the series is my favourite. I really dig this concept of the Basilisk and so on. Its much more exciting and engaging and i would easily nominate this as the best harry potter book so far in the series. To anyone old or young you will love it.

The first Harry Potter book was very mediocre and I have no idea why it sparked a worldwide frenzy. Thankfully, someone made a bigger effort on this second book, and it is a significant improvement. The plot is more interesting and less predictable, and the characters aren't quite as stereotyped. There is a tiny amount of character development for Harry, although very little at this point. I did enjoy this book, although it is more like confectionary than 'great literature'. Thankfully the 3rd book is a little better than this one.

this was a pretty good book from JK Rowling, but i felt that it just wasnt as good as the first. this is a really classy cover, one that adults may want to purchase as it looks more grown up. while this book was not as enjoyable as the first, it was still good, and contained the same drama and action of the first!

This book was better than the first one but didn't match up to the third one. I really did love this book though as I loved all of them as J.K has gone along with her series it seems that almost every book is better than the last. A remarkable feat! This was truly a good book though.
