I love this super witty and funny companion to the Harry Potter books. It's been created with such love for detail, it's clear to see that Joanne had much fun writing it. Maybe even as much fun as me reading it.
My favourite parts are the history of Quidditch and how it spread to other countries and continents. I especially loved the part about New Zealand.

I didn't know what to expect about this book written by the magical J.K. Rowling about the 'history' of the magic sport of Quidditch.
However, I was happily surprised that while some chapters explaining the rules of the 'sport' are kinda tiresome, they were the few, since other chapters were really amusing and entertaining.

I think that Rita said it very well: 'I've read worse.'.
It was a fun, quick read but... A bit dull if you ask me. There was a lot of effort to make it funny, but it just felt a bit forced.
But I have to admire JK that she put so much thought into the whole universe and has so much knowledge about it. That's fantastic! But I believe that Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them where just a bit better.

This was awesome! I can't believe I've never read it before! I gave this 5 out of 5 not because it was a phenomenal work of literary fiction, but because of the time and effort that J.K. Rowling put into creating this amazing sport, the history, the teams, the rules, everything is phenomenally done! I love Quidditch, and being a total sports nerd this was perfect for me. The coolest thing for me was when the book discussed Canadian teams and a team called the Moose Jaw Meteorites were mentioned....more
My students are reading the first two Harry Potter books. Once they are done there will be a little bit of time left before the school year ends, so we are going to read this book. I just finished the book and created my own student workbook and homework assignments because there are none on this book. If you are a teacher and would like a copy of the material I'd love to share. I worked way too long and hard on it, to not share it :p

Slightly better than FB, this one reads like a long a boring textbook on the history of a wizarding game.
But that's probably because it's exactly that. :)
Don't get me wrong. It's fascinating in its way, but I've never cared much for ANY kind of sports history. It bores me to tears. :)
At least this has magic, no? It's written well. It still just happens to be a short history.

I'm not a sports fan as many others are. However, I do enjoy watching some soccer matches whenever there is a European or World Championship. When I watched Harry Potter, I was amused by the wizarding sport #1, Quidditch, but nothing more. Then came the 4th book/movie and with them the Quidditch World Cup and I was enamoured. The atmosphere of the gathering (before it all went wrong), the intricacies of the rules and mascots and rivalries and the games themselves ... the enthusiasm was palpable...more

Just like Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, this is an informative book. We get to learn the history of Quidditch (a popular sport in the Wizarding World.), other games using Broomsticks, Quidditch Teams, Game rules etc.. It's really a fascinating read and I enjoyed it :)

Funnier and more interesting than Fantastic Beasts. Also, it read more like a genuine Hogwarts text book than Fantastic Beasts did, which was just basically a giant list with a brief summary of various creatures. This had far more magic and history and information in it.

So, in the increasing hysteria mounting over the advent of the final Harry Potter book, I have been reading anything I can get my hands on before we all know how it ends and the fun is over! This teeny little book is quite funny and reads in about 10 minutes. Written exclusively for charity, it includes a libary check-out card in the front with 'H.
