Hogwarts Library

By J.K. Rowling

The Hogwarts Library collection contains three short companion books presented as texts or storybooks from the Wizarding World: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. They are optional rather than part of the seven-novel Harry Potter story. For the most spoiler-safe route, read the collection after Deathly Hallows.

These three short in-world books are optional companions. Read them after Deathly Hallows for the simplest spoiler-safe route; none is required for the seven-novel story.
