The 2nd in the series. Still a little light-hearted for the youngsters. I love Gilderoy and especially the Lucius Malfoy. Or maybe it's the actors who portray them. But, then again, women tend to like those "bad boys." LOL! Excellent book for a literature circle. Have students read then view the movie for a compare/contrast.
As usual J.K. Rowling has proved to be a writer for our times and the future. Actually I already this and all of her other Potter works and have never been disappointed in any of them. It was great to reread this again.
