A few months after he triumphs over the dark lord, Voldemort, Harry Potter returns to Hogwarts again for another year of practicing magic. This year, Harry discovers that his ability to talk to snakes isn’t the gift he thought it was, causing many students to turn on him. Soon after, a mysterious message written in blood appears, “The Chamber of Secrets has been opened. Enemies of the Heir Beware”. Following this event, an unknown individual is going around petrifying students of Hogwarts, including Harry’s friend Hermione. Now, Harry and Ron must learn all they can about the cryptic Chamber of Secrets and close it before it’s too late.
I’d say Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets is my favorite book in the Harry Potter series. It’s when things turn from a light-hearted adventure to something more serious while still containing its whimsical feeling. If you liked Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone, you’ll love this sequel even more.
