First of all I must say that honestly, in all my years of reading books (which is not many, to be honest!) I haven't come across a series of books better than Harry Potter. They are so well thought out that it's like witches and wizards and Hogwarts are all actually real.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is book two is the famous series. Harry Potter is warned by Dobby the house elf not to go back to Hogwarts, for Harry will be in 'mortal danger' (said Dobby) if he does go back. There is a plot to make terrible things happen at Hogwarts. But Harry ignores Dobby's warning and goes back to Hogwarts to start his second year. But soon, strange things start to happen. Students are being 'petrified', but no one knows who or what has been petrifying these students. Some people think that Harry himself is doing it.
Soon Harry realizes that it's only Muggle borns that are being attacked. And when Hermione gets attacked, Harry finds out from the piece of paper Hermione is holding that the thing that is attacking students is a Basilisk; a giant snake. Harry, Ron and Professor Lockhart go down into the Chamber of Secrets and Harry battles the Basilisk with the Sword of Godric Gryffindor, and soon kills the Basilisk.

It's like JK Rowling is a Hogwarts graduate herself, for she has created such an amazing, imaginative, engaging and suspenseful world that is completely and utterly magical. She used such interesting words, and the book isn't plain and boring. Say a kid knew the exact plot of what happens in this book, and wrote it in their own words; yes, the ideas would be good, but the language wouldn't be that good. But Rowling has used such good language that it makes it even more interesting.

And still, in 2011, I read this book, and I will never get tired of it! If you haven't got it then I suggest you buy it. And if you haven't read any of the Harry Potter series then you need to get reading!
