Just as gripping as the first but also sort of similar storyline to the first one.

Chamber of Secrets is to be honest my least favorite of the series. I dunno if that’s because it scared me as a small child when I first read it or if I genuinely don’t care for it.

That being said it is a great sequel to the first book, the characters are back for another year at Hogwarts and this time Ginny (and others) join the school as first years! A whole new slew of adventures and a whole new (goofy af) DA teacher. 

(And the unfortunate mention of good god JK Rowlings prejudice really can be painfully felt at times.)

Reread the first four books in 2020 and yikes at the level of fatphobia and body shaming Rowling does. If my daughter ever wants to read this series like I did as a kid, I will have to have some very serious conversations with her. (This isn't to mention how much of a POS Rowling is otherwise.)
