Beyond the Wand: The Magic & Mayhem of Growing Up a Wizard by Tom Felton

adventurous hopeful inspiring medium-paced

Thanks to Emma Watson for encouraging Tom to publish this book! I enjoy Harry Potter books but I'm not really into the movies, actors, and actresses, but booktok made me listen to this audiobook. Overall the book was telling about his previous life before becoming an actor, the audition (how mocking Emma on the set making him casted as Draco), the fillm making (how his grandpa was chosen as Hogwarts professor), and the after. 

Well since I'm not really into the movies, I didn't know the actors and actresses life after the movies. I didn't know Tom once fled on one rehab and got kicked out of another lol it's sad but also hilarious. 

I especially like how Tom narrated the book. Really it feels like listening to a story from a friend. I enjoyed how Tom giggled during funny stories, also the excitement in his voice as he read about those amazing people in his life. If you're planning on reading this book, I recommend you to choose the audio version👍
