Hi!  I'm new too so i'ts gr* to c I'm not the only one!  I'll tell u 
sonething.  I didn't like Chamber of Secrets much the first time I 
read it either.  Howeve I have read all of the books again now and I 
actually LOVE it now.  That book is very complicated (like GOF) so 
reading it a second time helps you take everything in a bit better 
and you notice all the clues sthat you missed the first time around.
