Book Review: Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them

Author – J.K.Rowling

Publisher – Bloomsbury 2016

Rating – 4/5

I kicked off 2017, and my new reading list, with this book. I wanted to read it predominantly because I love Love LOVE the Harry Potter books so it was a total no brainer for me. However, saying that I was a little unsure as to whether or not I wanted to read it because I didn’t want to spoil my childhood books.

Firstly, I haven’t read any plays/screenplays before but I actually found it a good style to read and I enjoyed it and would in fact read more books that are written in this way again.

I enjoyed the contrast between the wizarding worlds (UK & USA) and enjoyed getting to meet some of the interstiving and imaginative creatures, some of which are clearly based on mythology.

What animal will be crawling out of the suitcase next?
