Harry Potter #2

Throughout the summer holidays after his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry Potter has been receiving sinister warnings from a house-elf called Dobby.

Now, back at school to start his second year, Harry hears unintelligible whispers echoing through the corridors.

Before long the attacks begin: students are found as if turned to stone.

Dobby’s predictions seem to be coming true.

I have always wondered why anyone would hire Gilderoy Lockhart, and then I started working in international schools. It makes perfect sense because, when in need, they hire absolutely anyone without an actual care for their abilities or expertise. The number of people I have met who've been hired into schools, even though they have massively problematic histories, is absurd. It's scary.

The only benefit of Lockhart: Snape's appearances in the novel decrease in order to show how incapable Lockhart is. Snape appears almost randomly to make a student miserable, still making me wonder why anyone at Hogwarts would've ever kept him around since he hates approximately 75% of his students so much.

Regarding Lockhart: If he was the only available candidate for the job, I would've found ways to have my teachers working together and restructuring the whole approach to schooling. They're a wizarding school, so why is everything …

Κάπου ο Ντάμπλντορ λέει: "Είναι οι επιλογές μας Χάρι που δείχνουν πολύ πιο ξεκάθαρα από τις ικανότητές μας ποιοι είμαστε πραγματικά".

When an author writes an epic series of books you gotta expect that some stuff maybe recycled and that the beginning of each book will be similar as you get a recap of what happened and the characters are introduced again, for those who forget easily or maybe for those who like to read a series in random order. What I wasn't expecting was Rowling to just rehash the first potter book, I don't understand why nobody has complained more about this. Everything that happened in this book is just slightly tweaked from the last book. Here's a run-down of both books.

1. Harry has horrible foster parents and they lock him away because they don't want him going to wizard school (it looked like they had learnt their lesson in book 1 but conveniently forgot all that for book 2)
2. They go to Diagon ally to buy some …

Have decided to re-read the entire series. Will not change the original star ratings, but will include my updated star ratings in the wall o' text.

The first time I read this, way back in high school, I remember thinking that it just wasn't as good as #1. When I read through the first part of the series again before reading #5, I remember thinking #2 might just be my favorite. This time, I know already it won't be my favorite of the series, but it's a huge improvement over #1, as there's actually a plot.

Le deuxième tome de la célébrissime saga Harry Potter, qu'on ne présente plus. Je sais que celui-ci a ses détracteurs, mais j'aime beaucoup ce tome, peut-être parce que c'est le premier où la noirceur des derniers tomes commence à faire son apparition, avec ce thème du racisme et de l'intolérance en toile de fond.
