They go to the Chamber of secrets and find the Basilisk and Harry Slays the great snake.

Review:
Overall I thought it was a good book. The beginning was kind of slow but as soon as Harry left the house to Hogwarts all the action started. With the intertwining storyline it kept me guessing. The new characters being introduced gave the book an edge over the other. I find myself questioning the integrity of every character at one point or another. Even at the end of the book I’m still questioning some of the characters true intentions, but I guess I’ll have to find out in the next book.

Quote:
“Voldemort.. is my past, present and future...” I choose this quote because it really embodies who Tom Riddle really is. This is because Voldemort embodied apartof himself into the book. This allowed himself to maintain his power and youth.
