Miggs:
In conclusion, the second book is by no means "slightly out of 
place", rather it is an integral part of the entire seven book story. 
Although perhaps some of its relevance and connections remain murky.

Me:
I totally agree with you. Chamber of Secrets is, no matter what, still 1/4 of the entire series thus far. It might be seen as "the odd one out" for different reasons, but if J.K. is as good a writer as I hope, she'll bring things back to haunt us from CoS somehow. I like the idea that Ginny was given some of Riddle's powers, similar to what happened to Harry after Voldemort's first fall. Perhaps J.K. will use CoS to severely deepen Ginny's character and make her a far more central role in the series.
