#55 Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander, J.K. Rowling

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
(Hogwarts Library)
by Newt Scamander, J.K. Rowling, Eddie Redmayne (Narrator) audio book

Audio book review. Normally I don’t listen to audios unless I have already read the book since I’m usually doing other things and I don’t want to miss a detail that might get blocked by my GPS telling me to turn in a few miles.

This is a quick short audio read by Eddie Redmayne who plays Newt Scamander in the movie, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. There is a bit of history of what is a beast and what isn’t at the beginning, but the body of the book is just a list of creatures and the facts about them. The nice part with the audio is there are sound effects along with the reading of the text so it makes it a bit more entertaining. A cute listen and I think I certainly enjoyed it more than if I had bothered to read the slim volume that has been out there for years.
