Absolute favourite book! HARRY POTTER ROCKS! I love that harry finally goes to the burrow and Ginny has a larger role for the plot than some of the other books.

i was never so unhappy to see a series come to an end like i was for harry and the gang. it was like watching a family member leave or die really. i wanted to know what would happen to harry and the gang but than again i didn't! it felt like a journey that would go on forever but the end came to an end to quick for me. i will truly miss it the second harry adventure was one that brought you a bit closer to harry and the gang. you felt as if you had seen some growing on all involved. i was thrilled with the way it began and the way that it ended

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets begins as Harry spends a miserable summer with his only remaining family, the Dursleys. During a dinner party hosted by his uncle and aunt, Harry is visited by Dobby, a house-elf by name of Dobby. Dobby warns Harry not to return to Hogwarts, the magical school for wizards that Harry attended the previous year, explaining that terrible things will happen there. Harry politely disregards the warning, and Dobby wreaks havoc in the kitchen, infuriating the Dursleys. The Dursleys angrily imprison Harry in his room for a while. Harry is rescued by his friend Ron Weasley and his brothers Fred and George in a flying car, and spends the rest of the summer at the Weasley home.

Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right, and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort.

The mind is not a book, to be opened at will and examined at leisure. Thoughts are not etched on the inside of skulls, to be perused by an invader. The mind is a complex and many-layered thing.

Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike …We wizards have mistreated and abused our fellows for too long, and we are now reaping our reward.

Indeed, your failure to understand that there are things much worse than death has always been your greatest weakness.
