4.0
“Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets” is the second installment in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling. Harry is a wizard living with his cruel non-magical Aunt and Uncle over the summer. His wizarding friends come to rescue him and take him back to a magical school called Hogwarts. At the school there’s a monster on the loose, that is petrifying students have non-magical parentage. Harry and his two friends Hermione and Ron, uncover clues as the semester continues, until they uncover the truth of the “Chamber of Secrets” and have to go in themselves and face the monster to save the school and Ron’s sister.
Content Warnings:
• Magic/Sorcery (If that sort of thing bothers you)
• Possible Triggers: spiders, snakes
It was lots of fun re-reading this book. I was never an avid Harry Potter reader growing up, but I remember that I really enjoyed them and they affected the imagination play that I did as a kid. “The Chamber of Secrets” is a great book in the series, the mystery and uncovering clues throughout the book is engaging for the reader. It doesn’t have the boring and frustrating angst that later Harry Potter books have, that I disliked. It’s a simple and fun story, and the characters are all interesting and rounded. I recommend that if you’ve never got around to reading the Harry Potter series that you give them a try, I hope that one day I can share them with my own kids.
