If you love the world of Harry Potter as much as I do, then you should read these books. J.K. Rowling gives background on everything from Professor McGonagall’s childhood to Ollivander’s wands, and Hogwarts, our favorite wizarding school. I cannot get enough. It's phenomenal how this woman's mind works and the amount of research and backstory she created that we never even touch on in her books.
If you've ever wondered what happened when Vernon Dursley first met James Potter, wanted to know more about the magical properties of wand cores or pondered whether the Malfoys were always wealthy and firmly anti-Muggle - then From the Wizarding Archive (Volume 1) should go straight to the top of your must-read list.
