A Field Guide to Fantastical Beasts | 
pickI greatly enjoyed this book. A lot of work went into it, finding the origin stories for each fantastic beast, who all believes in them and telling all the locations where they are found.
The book talks a bit about Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, where the ideas for creatures/characters come from and where they got character names.
I‘d recommend this book if you like mythology and/or like learning about these kind of beasts.
