A fun glimpse back into the Harry Potter world of quidditch. Rowlings mind always amazes me. 4 🌟

Wrapping up on the 2023 HP-themed reading challenge and excited for the next, with 60 new prompts to choose from! This year I made it “on the team” but didn‘t make “quidditch captain,” lol. Next year I‘m going to challenge myself to read at least 3 books in each category of prompts. You can find them on a website called The Sticker Party if you‘re interested!

Again, this was good enough. My favorite part was the library checkout record at the beginning, but the history and such of quidditch was interesting. I like the thought put into the wizarding world. It didn‘t add much to my HP experience but it was a nice mini-visit.

JenlovesJT47 The audiobook is fun! Andrew Lincoln from The Walking Dead is the narrator. ❤️ 4y

I've been a bit of a lazy reader, and much more lazy posting. Finished this a couple of days ago.

Not a book that would have any value value to read on its own, but the history of Quidditch and the rules make an easy fun read for those fan of the Harry Potter series.

A fun escape; though not nearly as rereadable as the series, it does have some great moments of humor.

I'm now torn between wanting a snidget or a pigmy puff more ... I might need both. 🥰 #potteraday

Scochrane26 I have a pigmy puff (from HP World). I got it because I wanted to do the adoption ceremony. I named her Violet because I got a purple one. (edited) 4y
Linsy @Scochrane26 Awww, she sounds adorable! I have a bowtruckle that my nephew gave me and my one-year-old is totally enamored. 4y
Scochrane26 @Linsy Bowtruckles are so cute! 4y

4.5⭐️ The only qualm I have of the book is that it should have been longer 😉 #2021 #harrypotter #fiction #fantasy #bookreview #bookstagram #potteraday

I have been absolutely horrible at checking in on my own readathon, apologies. My anxiety got in the way and I hit a real reading slump. I feel like I'm on my way back up now though, and I'm really enjoying this little book as a fun escape. That poor little snidget though. I'm with Modesty.

Also, love that this letter is from Modesty to Prudence — they sound similar to names in Fantastic Beasts (the movie). ⚡ #potteraday

Overall, I give this book 5 ⭐️ because I did enjoy reading the books within the Harry Potter books. My only complaint is that it seemed as though there was a lot of information crammed into a small amount of pages.

This was a fun short one for any Wizarding World fan. After the initial book on the audio edition that I did there was a Quidditch World Cup report. I didn‘t love that but it was ok. Still fun to listen to.

I read this Sept 1 and gave it 4 ⭐️ on Good Reads. I‘d bought the book because I was a Harry Potter completionist (before I got burned out) and because it raised money for Comic Relief. This is a fun little read. Very imaginative.

Even though I‘m a huge Harry Potter fan, this history of Quidditch didn‘t especially thrill me. Of course, I was reading a book about Quidditch for the reading challenge prompt, “read a book involving sports.” That probably says more about me than it says about this book.

The depth and breadth of Rowling‘s worldbuilding continues to astound me. If the Quidditch scenes were your favorite parts of the Harry Potter books, then this book is for you!

A good companion piece to the Harry Potter series. I have read the physical copy and now the audiobook which as the added bonus of special sound effects which adds to the experience and I highly recommend you listen to it.

Today we had my son's birthday party. He wanted a Harry Potter theme, so we put up Hogwarts banners, I made Golden Snitches and we had a magical treasure hunt. I'm dead tired right now, but the children loved it!

Listening to this one entirely because it is read by Andrew Lincoln. It‘s such a delight to hear “Rick Grimes” speaking in his natural British accent (as well as in several additional put-upon accents and voices) about witches and wizards and magic. I love it when my fandoms collide!!!

See my full review on my blog (see bio).

For all you lovers of Harry Potter, you will love this!! The wizards somehow decided to share this book with us, muggles.

A book about the history of Quidditch, the famous teams and players, all the exiting moments and mysterious injuries :D

I listened to the audio book, and it came with special edition with the 2014 World Cup, reported by Ginny Potter and Rita Skeeter! Loved it! 5⭐
