13444458, How many JK Rowling books have you read? Posted by MEAT, Wed Dec-31-69 07:00 PM
Im gonna go out on a limb here and feel that most of us haven’t read a single JK book. And within that say that the authors in general aren’t typically thought of with film adaptations Harry Potter is a Dan Radcliff vehicle Fantastic Beasts is a Johnny Depo vehicle Them Tom Clancy books are vehicles for famous white men Willy Wonka is a Gene Wilder movie
And so on

13444459, I read a Harry Potter book while on tour Posted by legsdiamond, Tue Oct-12-21 01:30 PM
just 1.
It was a fun and quick read.
My wife laughed when I told her about it.
“It should be, its a childrens book”

13444463, There are 7 HP books Posted by MEAT, Tue Oct-12-21 01:43 PM
Nobody read five and stopped. The either read three and gave up on the author for good or read all seven Like who’s the person that read only three HP books, quit, but read two from the extended universe.

13444464, WHY AREN'T WE DISCUSSING JK ROWWWWLIIIINGGGG Posted by Rjcc, Tue Oct-12-21 01:47 PM
probably because the specific age group that okp covers is exactly in the gap that's least likely to have read the books or even watched the movies
or it's because of the flawed criticism of her
it's one of those definitely
www.engadgethd.com - the other stuff i'm looking at

13444472, All of the main Harry Potter books Posted by shygurl, Tue Oct-12-21 02:40 PM
At this point I wouldn't support anything of hers, partially because she is a terf, and partially because through an older adult's eyes there's just as much racism and sexism in her books as anti trans rhetoric in her real life speech.

13444575, all of the original Potter books. so 7? Posted by Damali, Wed Oct-13-21 01:08 PM
"Chappelle is now a wealthy cishet Black man with little else to offer to his audiences, but low-hanging uninformed fruit. And cishets who claim LGBTQ+ have too thin a skin also lack the range to confront their own prejudices in a meaningful way."

I associate Willy Wonka with the Roald Dahl book.
