I think that the fourth book is the most interesting so far, but the second would come before the other two.

I'm 24 years old, and I felt like a kid reading it, starting from watching the movie. I had to read it, finished it within 2 days, and then I read the second one. Read it within 2 days also... so I'm reading the third one now. That shows how addicted I am with the Harry Potter Books!


Harry Potter and the Chamber Of Secrets was an amazing book!! I've read the first one and i just finished reading the second one, both were amazing books. I cant decide which one i like better. Harry Potter is amazing!! oh yeah! i need to read the 3rd and 4th one now, oh yeah and I LOVE YOU ANTHONY, LOL :)


Hi! I'm Ian Gervacio from the Philippines, 17. I was really amazed at how Mrs. Rowling made the plot of this book. It's like she was really destined to write it. I was amused at how she was able to connect this sequel to the first one at a very magical and more interesting way. I was particularly delighted at the chapter where she discussed the ability of Harry to speak with snakes and when the name of Tom got scrambled to LORD VOLDEMORT. I am greatly amazed


I thought this book was great. It was very dark and mysterious. That's what made it fun to read.

I think that this book was great, the more I read the book the more I was into it!! I really think that people should read this book, and I can promise that you will have a great adventure along with Harry!!
