Dear Uncle Remus,
I know Uncle Sirius hates reading so he wouldn't know about Lockhart but I've heard you mention him. It turns out, he's a pompous idiot. He's no good at anything and keeps telling me how, if I play my cards right, I can be as famous as him some day. I don't really want to be famous, and I definitely don't want to be like him. None of the other teachers like him either. He tells everyone else they're wrong, no matter how right they are. He thinks so highly of himself I'm sure he'll float away any moment. He was very upset when Hagrid told him that he hadn't read any of his books and was even more upset when he told him that I was more famous that he was without even trying. Things are getting bad here though. Mrs. Norris, and Collin have been petrified by some monster that's supposed to be from the "Chamber of Secrets." I finally got to use some of the spells Uncle Sirisus taught me in dueling club against Malfoy. It was loads of fun. I figure I should also tell you that I'm in a relationship. I don't know how long it'll last though. I'm kinda nervous about it. Do you know anything about the Chamber of Secrets?

P.S. I forgot my History of Magic book. Could you send Hedwig back with it please?
