I never expected to finish this book so quickly. Having watched Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the Lyric Theatre in NYC, reading this book was my only chance to revisit the play. It is parted into various chapters – from the idea to the finished play and distributing it to different countries, supported with a lot of pictures. Technically, there aren't big spoilers you wouldn't be able to connect without having seen the play anyways. There are some plot points explained, yet I found them quite vague, which is a good thing for people who haven't seen the play yet. Although, at the beginning of the book, there is a stamp that says "Secret Spoilers ahead", which is true. So if you want to see that play with no information whatsoever, don't read that book. All in all, it's a nice glance for people who haven't seen the play, but more of a memory book for people who have seen the play already. I was instantly sucked back into the world and I really want to see that play again. Either in London or Hamburg, but that will take some time now, with the pandemic and all.
