Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (HP #2, reread)



I've reread HP#2 several times, and at this point, I assume that you all have too. If you haven't read it (and WHY not?!), beware forthcoming spoilers.

I love that Ginny joins the ranks of Hogwarts students and that though she doesn't pop up very often in the course of the book--till the end, of course--she develops a very distinct presence in the bigger picture. And who can't sympathize with a crush that huge? I look forward to seeing more of her character in the next books; I don't remember much about Ginny's role between this and the last couple books, except that she's present and that I think we'd notice if she weren't making regular appearances in the story.

Has anyone else found themselves rereading #2 and a little voice in the back of your mind screams, "Horcrux!"??? I'd almost forgotten that word.

I like Ginny a lot too. These books are such fun reads and it's high time that I go back for a reread! Great post! You've got me all excited about this series again!

I joined this challenge and then abandoned it. I do look forward to rereading the books one of these days soon. Your reviews are bringing back good memories of my first Harry Potter reading experience!
