What a wonderful journey into the making of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Now all I need to do is read the screenplay!

Inside the Magic is such a fun book. I bought it as a Christmas present, but had to have a cheeky read before wrapping it.

This was such a fascinating addition to the word of Fantastic Beasts. I loved learning more about the actors and things they added to their roles which ended up changing the planned course for a character and seeing all the costume designs and how much though goes into things that fall under the radar with all the magic going on on screen.
