"Poll question: How many JK Rowling books have you read?"
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

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.

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.
