Book review of Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets

   J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets kept me glued to the pages with its interesting story line and its fast pace.
  
   The theme, reliance on a community appears often throughout the book. I feel that J.K. Rowling is trying to send a very important message to her readers through this book and that message would be that as long as you have a couple real close friends you will have someone that has your back through thick and thin. To support this statement here are some examples from the book. Ron, Harry's best friend, is always there to help Harry if ever the need should arise no matter if it involves possibly getting expelled from Hogwarts, the school they attend. Hermione on the other hand is also there to help Harry but in a more conserved manner, because she is just getting to were she will break a few rules to help him but for the most part she is trying to keep him and Ron out of trouble.

    J.K. Rowling's style of writing brings you into the story so deeply and keeps you there that it is hard to put the book down. I enjoy books with this kind of style because it makes it seem as though time has stopped to allow you to read. A hundred pages go by and it seems to only have been ten minutes but it has been twenty or thirty minutes. The tension in style of the book keeps the reader hanging on to every word of every page in the book.

    The author does an amazing job of making Ron, Hermione, Harry, and all of the other characters seem as tho if you went to London you could very well bump into one of them, because she gives a lot of background knowledge to the reader on the main characters lives. I like the characters of Harry, Hermione, and Ron. Harry, because he is picked on throughout the book but stands up for himself no matter what. Hermione seems to try to control the chaos which is her's, Harry's, and Ron's life at Hogwarts with as much trouble they get into. Ron has the tendency to blow up in people's face's if they make fun of him, Harry, or Hermione.

    This would be a great read for anyone who enjoys suspenseful fiction books, but I feel that it is best to wait until your in junior high or you just might not understand this book.
