5.0

I’ve been wanting to read this for a long time and I’m so glad I finally got to! It’s so good. I especially enjoyed the annotations from J.K. Rowling in her original drafts of the books. I really loved learning more about the Harry Potter series, the characters, the creatures and everything else! Honestly I would have loved more — like it would’ve been great to learn more about Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, Diagon Alley and Azkaban — maybe a chapter on the settings. I also get that the contents of this book are organized based on subjects studied at Hogwarts which I very much enjoyed with the relation these subjects had to the historical and mythological. Absolutely love having this in my collection.
