This book is simply lovely. The quality is of course waivering, this isn't a "professional" book, this is... this is a book that comes straight out of the hearts of its creators. So, I could probably critique something, but... where would be the point when I can simply gush about the things I loved!
The reason why I discovered this is an amazing fanart from upthehillard, I love her work so much.
I adore the trans-woman Hagrid headcannon... I just... I need to read that fanfic (I want to read it so much I considered writing it, but... I don't think I am capable of doing it right.) You can find more on this in The Gayly Propher podcast: https://hashtagruthless.com/listen/2019/6/3/18-hagrid-is-a-beautiful-transwoman-an-interview-with-mey-rude, highly recommend!
I also absolutely loved the Tonk's Tale - the tale is simple, but still very powerful and the art style is super pretty. Then there are the new Chocolate Frog Cards, which... what a marvelous idea! Loving the Room of Requirement headcannon... Then there is the Winky short comics that is really sweet and... Winky deserves a better that what she got from cannon!
I feel like this is getting a bit repetitive, but I really love the Percy comic too. I just... the personalities are perfectly captured... I won't say more since it's so short, but... aahhh. And then there is the Remus comic, which again is absolutely perfect... I absolutely adore the ending of that one. There is also a lot of more personal pieces, which I am not commenting on, because... you know they feel really personal, but some of them were really touching and showed me a side of HP I didn't see before.
Overall, I really loved this small collection, it was lovely... My relationship with HP is really complicated right now, so... I'm glad that this helped me restore it a bit.
