Teen Review Jul 24, 2022

Fantastic Beasts and the Secrets of Dumbledore was a complete letdown. It felt rushed and
messy as many of the characters weren’t even in the movie despite being in previous Fantastic
Beasts movies. Such as Nagini, who was supposed to be in love with Credence, was
completely missing, and where was Tina? The action was also very debatable since the only
good duel we had was between Dumbledore and Credence. But the most baffling and

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K Rowling is undoubtedly a fantastic book. I
loved reading about the Knight Bus, the Marauders, the Dementors, Buckbeak, and all the little

unlikeable personalities, which says something. As for the mystery behind the Prisoner of
Azkaban, I found it thrilling and shocking. There are so many great things about this book; I
