Lockhart forgetting who he was was the best part

As usual this was such a fun read. It took me a little time to get back into it since I read the first one last year. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I read it in fall or winter it's just that type of series. For the love of God I couldn't read it with hp ambiences I don't know what's wrong with me. I did that with the first one and it was amazing. 

The ending was really epic and I was in the dark the whole time about how people were getting petrified and what the creature was. It was definitely a little scarier that the first. The final battle in the chamber was so fun to read too

One of my childhood favorites. We see more antics from Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they try and piece together the awful attacks happening at school. Some tense moments but they ultimately pull through and save the day.

Audiobook - 9 hours 39 minutes - Again, very hard to put a rating on any books in this series. Trying to be completely objective, this is a really well-written book. The characters are likeable and the plot very engaging. It is better than the movie, which I was remembering more clearly so I enjoyed the book more than I was remembering.
