Beyond the Wand is the personal memoir of Tom Felton, who rose to fame for his portrayal of the complicated character of Draco Malfoy from the Harry Potter series. The book begins with his induction into show business, and details from his childhood off screen. I would imagine that the majority of people read this book to learn about all of the behind the scenes stuff from the Harry Potter films, and I cannot pretend that I was also not interested in that. However, there is always more to a public figure than meets the eye, and I find it particularly interesting to learn how they got started in film and what motivated them to do so. Tom also speaks about some of his life struggles, which can be a source of inspiration for others. I really enjoyed this book. (He narrates the Audible version, so if you are an Audible listener, that is a bonus for you.)
