   Books Read in 2016 (3,639) No current Talk conversations about this book.  thoroughlyme | Apr 23, 2021 |  This is more for the fans than for anyone else, but if you are a fan, it's awesome to read about the background of the books and how detailed the people and world is in J. K. Rowling's mind. (  ) RankkaApina | Feb 22, 2021 | • Oh umbridge is a nasty little lady alright? She is pure evil from the day she was born. • Quirell was weak and I feel pity for him. • Peeves is fun , I mean life at hogwarts would be more fun if there is a ghost that likes to trouble everyone in a no harm way. • Hermione is the queen!! She brew polyjuice in 2nd year when even the older witches and wizards are scared to use it. She has always been a great inspiration. One thing J.K. Rowling did great was to create such strong and amazing female characters. But I am still sad that the author of such great book is transphobic. ( ) Vibha_V | Feb 18, 2021 | Not really short stories as character bios, but good for all that. I liked seeing some background on the some of the baddies and the not so baddies, the grey folks like Slughorn. Definitely a good read if you like to get additional information about main characters like Dolores. :) (  ) bradleyhorner | Jun 1, 2020 | Interesting to learn a bit more about the bothersome Umbridge. The name origins of Azkaban and Slughorn. Peeves! The names of all the Ministers of Magic and how long they were in office. Interesting stuff! ( ) BelindaS7 | Apr 14, 2020 | no reviews | add a review
No Muggle Prime Minister has ever set foot in the Ministry of Magic, for reasons most succinctly summed up by ex-Minister Dugald McPhail (term of office 1858-1865): ¿their puir wee braines couldnae cope wi¿ it.¿¿ ¿ J.K.

While the majority of this writing is freely available on the Pottermore website, it's nice having them easily accessible in this ebook companion.
As its own piece of writing, it's a wonderful addition to the books and a welcome expansion of the backstory. (
