I liked this book very much. It never lets you stop reading as if it sucks you into the actual book. J.K. Rowling has made one of the best series of books out of all the books I have read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The second Harry Potter book is sooo good that when you read it once youll want to read it again, and again and again its that good. Ive seen the two movies and there excellent. I cant wait for the third one comes out it looks good. Iv read all 5 of J.K Rowlings Harry Potter books Ive loved them so much.

This book is pure fun. Harry learns a little more about the wizarding world, Voldemort, and himself. Dobby is a sweetie...poor guy.

I thought Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was an excellent followup to Rowlings first book. I don't like to read much but since I have seen each of the two movies, I am drawn into the witchcraft and wizardly at Hogwarts. It is amazing to me that Rowlings can devise all of the mind boggling and spectacular ideas for each book. Those who don't read or saw Harry Potter and finally do, beware, it will suck you in!
