Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

 Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is the second series in the Harry Potter Series. It's about a young boy called Harry Potter who finds out he is actually a wizard and attends a wizarding school in Hogwarts. There are a lot of mischief and unpredictable things happening in the wizard world. As told in the first book, the darkest wizard named Lord Voldemort killed Harry's parents when he was just 1 years old, but unintentionally. He was meant to kill Harry but his mom sacrificed his life for him because she loved his son dearly. This spell backfired on voldemort, and his powers were weakened. He went in hiding, and came back several days later, still on the hunt for Harry. Harry finds a diary in the toilet spelling Tom Riddle on it. He thought it was just an empty diary, but he finds out when you write on it, it writes back. He later goes in the chamber of secrets and finds out that the diary is a horcrux which is one of the 7 objects Voldemort puts his soul in. In order to weaken Voldemort, you have to find the 7 horcruxes, which can be anything, anywhere, and destroy it.


I think Harry Potter is a very well- thought out character. One of his main characteristics is that he is really brave. He is very determined to find out about his past and about the  night his parents got killed. He would risk his life to find out why the dark lord was after him. He is very strong as in emotionally. He has to keep up with villians after him and his nemesis in school, Draco Malfoy taunting him all the time, and yet e doesn't complain, instead he held his head up and dealt with it.

I would recommend this book to anyone really, but maybe above the age of ten. Because there are some hard words in the book, that I have to sometimes search up, and you have to infer and read in between the lines several times. J.K Rowling writes it in a very complex way and all the characters are well- developed. In the end of the whole story, there are secrets linking the characters together. She gives subtle hints, which are very witty.
