I can't help but love this! I, as a nerd, cannot describe how giddily happy this made me! There were so many memorable moments mentioned in which I remembered them and laughed at most。 I'm just amazed。 This world (not the real world ofc😣) makes me so happy, it just is what I look for in life but I'll know I'll never have it😭 anyway, love to the book and the spells, hexes, jinxes, curses, candy, and other useful stuff that's in there!

A handy guide for spells, wands, and magical objects! That is all really in this book!

Shelley Nutma

Quite a lot of enjoyable, nerdy detail! Lots of info from the video games, which totally made me want to play them again。。。 Fun read!

Katie

Simply a fun book for fans of the Harry Potter universe。 A nice quick read when you’re feeling something light and enjoyable。

Britt Sorel

This was an interesting but short read。 It went over spells, hexes, charms, magical objects, and more。 I've had this for a while and put off reading it because of Rowling's TERF remarks。 However, since I already own it, I figured I might as well indulge。 You can check it out from your library if you'd like to read it without enlarging her pockets from royalties。 This was an interesting but short read。 It went over spells, hexes, charms, magical objects, and more。 I've had this for a while and put off reading it because of Rowling's TERF remarks。 However, since I already own it, I figured I might as well indulge。 You can check it out from your library if you'd like to read it without enlarging her pockets from royalties。 。。。more

It was an amazing little book containing the spells used not only in the books and movies, but in the video games and board games a well。 It was informational and a fun, easy read!

5/5 ⭐️

Trinity

Loved learning of the different magical Harry Potter things and all the spells。 But can we just talk about the fact that Dumbledore cast Petrificus Totalus on Harry during the battle of the Astronomy tower。 NO WONDER HE JUST STOOD THERE LOOKING CONFUSED INSTEAD OF HELPING DUMBLEDORE。

Luna

Amazing。 Will get this when I buy my wand。

Reese H

I memorized most of it。。。。。。its so informational。 Best。 Spellbook。 Ever

James

i want to read it NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lana

Will be a great reference for fanfiction writing, but also I learned a lot from just reading it。 Lots of spells and charms that I forgot, and a few I didn't know (from the early card/video games)。 Will be a great reference for fanfiction writing, but also I learned a lot from just reading it。 Lots of spells and charms that I forgot, and a few I didn't know (from the early card/video games)。 。。。more

An enjoyable quick read。 The extra notes can be funny。

Amy

Comprehensive list, with some stretches to include those from the video games or those seen in a movie with no information attached ( see "Albus Dumbledores forceful spell" entry)。 Interesting information on the etymology of the spells and pretty to look at。 Comprehensive list, with some stretches to include those from the video games or those seen in a movie with no information attached ( see "Albus Dumbledores forceful spell" entry)。 Interesting information on the etymology of the spells and pretty to look at。 。。。more

Amanda [Novel Addiction]

An interesting read。 I do like that it noted when some spells were only mentioned in particular games or extra media (such as Pottermore or the mobile apps)

SlothDude3

very helpful for those who want to learn spells

It lists all the known spells, charms, jinxes, curses, hexes, and much more。 It also lists all the wand woods and all the supreme wand cores。 It lists a bunch of magical items, and talks about each of the deathly hallows。

Aunica

I seriously don't care that I spent two hours reading this book full of spells! I GOT A FREE WAND WITH IT!!!!!! So, I practiced all the spells! It doesn't only have spells in it, it has wand woods and wand cores, magical items, and jinxes, curses, and hexes! It's not a 'fun' read, but a highly enjoyable one!

Great for reference when reading the series, extremely thorough and references spells, charms, and curses from either Harry Potter video games or the trading card series。 Beginning bit about the wand cores/woods was also very interesting to read。 Overall very well thought out and researched。

This was just plain fun。 I enjoyed learning spell names, origins, and histories。

Fun book!

One of the elements of the Harry Potter series is the use of language hidden throughout the books。 As a foreign language teacher, I tend to pick up on the use of foreign languages in the books I read。 The majority of the spells in Harry Potter are of Latin origin and are most of the time literal translations of what the spell does。"The Unofficial Ultimate Harry Potter Spellbook" collects all of the spells used in the book series, the Lego games, as well as the computer/phone games。 They are divi One of the elements of the Harry Potter series is the use of language hidden throughout the books。 As a foreign language teacher, I tend to pick up on the use of foreign languages in the books I read。 The majority of the spells in Harry Potter are of Latin origin and are most of the time literal translations of what the spell does。"The Unofficial Ultimate Harry Potter Spellbook" collects all of the spells used in the book series, the Lego games, as well as the computer/phone games。 They are divided into sections for spells & charms, transfiguration, and Hexes, Jinxes, and Curses。 The final section is for magical items。What I appreciated about this is that for the longest time I had no idea what the difference was between a spell and a charm。 Or between a hex, jinx, or cures。 The book delineates all of these as well as describes what each spell does and where the spell is referenced in teh either the books or the games。This is a great resource to add to your Harry Potter collection。 It added some background knowledge to what I had already known about Harry Potter and adds a new layer to my understanding of the Wizarding World。 。。。more

This charming book will put a spell on you! WINGARDIUM LEVIOSAThis is one of the best reference books about the Wizarding World of Harry Potter that you can get nowadays in the market!It's a comprehensive guide to ALL the spells (well, maybe not all, all, but having moren than 240 spells, I can tell you that it's the closest thing that you'll ever find around) used in ALL media about Harry Potter, not only novels (the core seven books along with the theater's adaptation of The Cursed Chil This charming book will put a spell on you!

Such a cute book。 A nice addition to any Harry Potter fan collection。

I can’t believe I’m writing this since I’m such a huge fan of the Harry Potter world and I didn’t think I could write a bad review about any of its merchandising, but I have to say that this book is really dull and boring。 It is so that I had a hard time finishing it (I must confess I skipped through some pages because I couldn’t bare to read this stuff)。I mean, it’s fun to read about some spells and some magic-kind of stuff, but in my personal opinion it is a very long book。I have to acknowledg I can’t believe I’m writing this since I’m such a huge fan of the Harry Potter world and I didn’t think I could write a bad review about any of its merchandising, but I have to say that this book is really dull and boring。 It is so that I had a hard time finishing it (I must confess I skipped through some pages because I couldn’t bare to read this stuff)。I mean, it’s fun to read about some spells and some magic-kind of stuff, but in my personal opinion it is a very long book。I have to acknowledge the fact that the writers took on the task of reading every book, watching every movie and playing every game, and listing every single spell, magic gadgets and stuff。 It mustn’t have been an easy thing to do。 That’s why I’m giving it two stars, because the book itself, from my point of view, doesn’t even deserve one star。 (The notes on handwriting didn’t help neither)I SIMPLY DON’T RECOMMEND THIS BOOK。 。。。more
