This book does a great job of setting up some of the later plot points
(see: the sword, Tom Riddle, Hagrid's backstory and more)
but it feels a bit more drawn out than the first book. There's a hint of comedy, returning favorites from the first book, a good mystery, and a lot of wizard lore that makes this edition an overall pleasant read. 

While the plot felt pretty solid throughout, there were a few things I had an issue with. First, I feel like Ginny was shoehorned in at the very end; I assume this was to include the whole Weasley family and add higher stakes, either way it felt extremely forced. Second, I *really* dislike Dobby. There is truly no reason for him to be included in the plot besides the chaos he brings but, in my opinion, his points could have easily been brought by a different character. 

There are also some things in this book that I really enjoyed! Gilderoy Lockheart is my one of my favorite characters in the series, I really love the background we get on the school's founders, and I think this book does a great job of really introducing Lucius Malfoy.
