This book was pricey originally but I caught it on sale which was great! Though I will say, it is well worth the original price! There’s lots of little extras in there like a Grindelwald bookmark (I love Grindelwald!) and Paris flyers and little things! It’s very detailed! Definitely worth it! Any fan of the Wizarding world will want this!

I love this book! Great content, really great pictures and a few extra surprises included as well. Worth every penny and then some. This style of book is like the other Harry Potter books with very similar layouts and overall feel. Worth the read and a great piece to add to your collection!

Got this earlier then expected, like 4 days earlier!! Great companion book to the movie. So much detail has gone into this book, it’s simply amazing! All the inserts you can pull out and look at, it’s like you have little props from the movie! Book was a little damaged on the bottom spine but it isn’t too noticeable and the book is still readable so I’m not upset, I feel that was more on the handling during shipment. Definitely going to read this and then rewatch the movie and then probably reread it again. And once again MinaLima has done an amazing job at designing!

The package came nicely packaged, everything was great and intact. Nothing was missing, the inside of the pages had their interactive pop-outs and props, no torn pages. However, upon closer look, I discovered that the back cover of the book has two dents: one's more noticeable than that of the other. It also has a little crease to show the indent on the back cover of the book. The other dent is smaller, but when up close it is noticeable as well. There was a little scuff mark in the left-hand corner in the back as well, I tried to take the picture of it but had a hard time focussing in on it.

The media could not be loaded. I am in love with this book. It shows so many cool behind the scenes pictures and stories. There are many removable posters and stickers inside the book which makes it even better. My book arrived wrapped in a plastic foil so it was not damaged at all.If you are looking to buy yourself or someone you know who likes the wizarding world this book is a fantastic choice.

As a big fan of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts movies, I'm always interested in learning more about how the films were made. They're no ordinary movies, and this one, about the latest film in the Fantastic Beasts series, is no ordinary book. I loved reading about the making of the movie, and I loved the illustrations, photos, and extra features in the book. I had gotten a similar book about "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," so I knew I would enjoy this book.
