I love how the screen play includes little details you couldn't know from just watching the movie. I also loved being able to see further character nuances that weren't as obvious in the film.
Such an intriguing story with an array of unique and charming characters. I can't wait for later installments!

I definitely loved this book but... I don't know... Something was missing... I don't if is because it is a screenplay or the fact that I watched the trailer before reading this book... But it is definitely an amazing story! I can't wait to watch the movie!!

I loved reading this screenplay. And because I've seen the movie, I could easily visualize everything as I read it. It's a great story and I can't wait to see where they take it with the next movie. I will definitely read the next screenplay when it releases.

I absolutely adored this screenplay. I found it refreshing and fun to return to the wizarding world with Newt as the lead character. Having been written by J. K. made a vast difference in the flow of the script compared to The Cursed Child's multi-writers. The characters are easily likeable and entertaining. I hope they will continue to release the screenplays as I truly look forward to reading.

We're back to the Harry Potter world which in this book/script doesnt feel like it😅
Also am I the only one who hates Credence?Shortly after finishing this book I watched Crimes of Grindelwald and still hate him,can't stand him😑
Love the other characters like Newt(he's so pure),Jacob and Queenie. (Tina=meh)
The plot is very good,it starts slow and gets more interesting.
I've watched the movie before and I'm so happy to read the script too because it describes the things way more than in the movie,the details etc
Also if I were a wizard in this world I would never want to live in America.You want to know why?Because of MACUSA...You thought that the ministry of magic in Britain was the worst?Wait till you see or watch fantastic beasts.Their rules are so strict,their punishments...even worse
I just couldn't stand Madam Picquery,hated her even more than Graves/Grindelwald,I want her dead🙃
The beasts were so interesting and amazing to read about, especially the niffler,I want one as a pet😢
