## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another Trip to the Wizarding World
*by H***Y on November 18, 2016*

I've never read a book in screenplay format before, I steered clear of HP and the Cursed Child for that very reason. For Potterheads worried that Fantastic Beasts will be another Harry Potter fan fiction that messes with your view of the original characters, fear not. Fantastic Beasts occurs decades before little Harry was born, and involves very different themes. While the original HP series revolved around one hero and his fight against the all powerful You Know Who, Fantastic Beasts seemed more lighthearted without being childish.This particular cast of characters was a pleasure to get to know. I loved seeing Muggles other than the Dursleys in the wizarding world. There's Newt Scamander, a magic zoologist, dorky and loveable. There's Jacob Kowalski, a bumbling Muggle caught up in the mess, learning about the magical world as we do. And then there are Tina and Queenie, beautiful, talented, charming and kindhearted sisters, stuck in menial positions in the wizarding world and wanting more.This screenplay is wonderful because we get to visit the rich detailed wizarding world again. It was wonderful to see the magical creatures Harry learned about on the written page again. It was wonderful feeling that sense of anticipation opening a new Rowling novel again knowing you won't be able to do anything but read for the next 8 hours. The play was fun, witty, and just brilliant. The hardcover copy is beautiful and will go well with my hardcover copies of the original HP series. I would definitely recommend this book to new HP readers and Potterheads alike.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I want a Niffler...
*by D***O on December 28, 2016*

This was FIVE STARS for me. Yes, I know screenplays aren't typically liked, but I really enjoyed it.For a Harry Potter related story, it's wonderful and new and so different. The creatures are familiar, the trolls, a few of the magical elements are the same... But the differences really shined. A whole new unique twist I spent few hours reading. (And HP is the only book series where I hadn't seen ANY of the movies, including this one.)The paper cover? Gorgeous. I enjoy the colors (so totally Ravenclaw). The creatures within the 1920s art deco feel are so pretty. Best cover by far for me.Under the cover? A pretty denim blue book with a gold Niffler embossed. So cute! The polka dot end papers are whimsical and adorable.Inside, there are a lot of art deco type design on every page. Some of the pages throughout have creature prints or the actual creatures emerging through the design. Very aesthetically pleasing.As for the story... Newt Scamander, whom we've all heard about being the author of the book Fantastic Beasts, arrives in New York City in search of a rare creature. In his casee, he carries his incidentals, or so the human setting tells the customs official. In reality, he transports his collection of beasts.So when his case gets accidentally exchanged with an unsuspecting human, chaos was bound to break...Add in a power hungry wizard, GRAVES, and the US version of the Ministry of Magic, MACUSA, and you have this entire new world within the Wizarding one that was pleasant to visit and a joy to read!Two hours of reading time for me, with two breaks, just wasn't enough. I'd take stars away for something like that, but it was too fun and too different. I loved every moment and want to do it all over again. I would even love more and more of Newt and this 1920s Wizard world...It was so much fun.HIGHLY RECOMMEND just for the new story alone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loved this book, but it's not for everyone!
*by E***A on March 19, 2017*

I am a die hard Harry Potter fan so when I heard that J.K. Rowling was working to expand the Wizarding World to the Americas I was more than ecstatic! I had to get my hands on a copy of this book and refused to watch the movie until after reading it. I was originally expecting it to be a novel like the rest of the Harry Potter books and didn't learn that it was actually just the official script for the movie until after receiving it. Since I have a background in theater, I was able to read through this with ease and take in all that it had to offer. I was not disappointed by the storyline at all or the characters either. I felt that even through a movie script, I was able to see the development of each character and begin to piece together each of their background stories. I would recommend this to all Harry Potter fans, but mostly to those with some experience in reading scripts. I understand that this is not for everyone and many people feel that they are better off just watching the movie, but I personally enjoy being able to imagine the scenes in my mind and have an idea of what to expect before watching the film.
