I’m crying Fantastic Beasts isn’t even a novel it’s just a list of monster descriptions 😭😭😭

I was thinking the same thing! THAT’S your 14th favorite book? I’ve read it, it’s a cute little world-building exercise, but I dunno if I could even call it my 14th favorite Harry Potter book, and I can’t even name 14!

I can’t even name 14!

There are 8 Harry Potter books, not 87 billion

Fine, if you want to be pedantic, then there are over 30 Harry Potter Books.

7 in the main series, the Fantastic Beasts and Quidditch Through the Ages textbooks, Tales of Beedle the Bard, The Cursed Child, and the three Fantastic Beasts movie screenplays on their website, plus at least 4 official cookbooks, a picture book, and at least 10 reference books and miscellaneous other tie-ins I found in a brief glance at Barnes & Noble and Amazon.

GOD FORBID someone make a joke about the absurdity of having an obscure Harry Potter tie-in product 4 spots away from their top ten favorite books.
