When we meet Tina at the beginning of the book she fights and argues with Newt. She has a very prudish attitude and doesn't think about anything other than her job. However, by the end of the novel she befriends Newt and actually joins him on his adventure in New York City rather than arresting him as she should.]]> 2017-01-26 16:32:06 UTC https://padlet.com/connerni30/cbus71tsrgc4/wish/149660578 Gellert Grindelwald connerni30 https://padlet.com/connerni30/cbus71tsrgc4/wish/149665430 One minor character that plays a major importance in the novel is Gellert Grindelwald.

I justify this rating because even though I  enjoyed the novel it does suffer from some issues. The novel suffers most from trying to set up a cliffhanger in order to continue the story to the next book. I also didn't enjoy that the book doesn't go into very much detail at times.]]> 2017-01-26 16:51:55 UTC https://padlet.com/connerni30/cbus71tsrgc4/wish/149669130 Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them by J.K.
