My Harry Potter challenge | Part 2: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets


It's time for part 2 of my Harry Potter challenge! Of course, this one is about the second book and movie: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. If you don't know anything about this challenge yet, please read my first post here before you read this one!

Question Time!
1. What is your favorite scene in the book?
The Duelling Club. I love the tension in that scene and of course, this is where we learn that Harry is a Parselmouth.

2. What is your favorite scene in the movie?
The scene in the Chamber of Secrets with Tom Riddle. Is it just me, or is that scene way more intense in the movie than it felt in the book? Anyway, I loved those moments in the pipes, where Harry is being chased by the Basilisk. It's so creepy.

3. What is your favorite character in this installment?
I remember really loving Hermione in this installment and I still do. In CoS we see her more than we did in the first book/movie and I learnt to love her in this installment. She's smart and unafraid and I love her to bits.

4. What is your least favorite character in this installment?
Gilderoy Lockhart. You already know in the beginning that he isn't who he says he is and that all of his stories just can't be true. And his hunger for media attention is so freaking annoying!

5. Which scene from the book did you miss in the movie version?
I wish that they did the Duelling Club scene in the same that it is told in the book. The movie version just lets Harry and Draco duel, but in the book version, they let everyone practice in pairs. I think it would have made a great scene.

6. Favorite magical object, creature or hobby mentioned in this installment?
The Phoenix! I love Fawkes, he is really cute and he is a great helper to Harry in the Chamber. Can I have one please? ;)

7. What was the saddest scene in the book/movie?
Hermione being called a mudblood by Draco. I felt it was even more intense in the movie, since Hermione was actually tearing up while they were at Hagrid's.

8. What was the happiest scene in the book/movie?
Harry freeing Dobby with the sock. Even though he was kind of annoying, I love Dobby. It was so kind of Harry to free him from the Malfoy's and Lucius was so pissed off, haha!

And done! Those were all the questions again!
If you like this challenge, feel free to do it yourself as well. Don't forget to leave a link in the comments to the page or blog where I can see your answers, because I'd love to see them!

Next up will be Prisoner of Azkaban, my favorite one in the series. I don't know when I will be reading it yet, since school is starting again this week. My TBR pile this month has three HP books on it, so I do expect that it will be soon. :)

Happy reading,
Liz
