I always thought she sucked as an author, then she showed her ugly personality, she's got nothing.

I read the first book when it came out and thought it felt like if you asked a group of teenagers to come up with a wizard story in 5 minutes and they spout out a bunch of ideas that come from previous cartoons and movies and mixed it together. But I gave it a pass, it's a kids book and I was like 20 and things get rehashed over time.

Harry Potter is what current generation AI would come up given other wizard stories as input.
