Please share your opinions here about what J.K. Rowling has been saying.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, please visit her twitter page and you'll get the idea. https://twitter.com/jk_rowling/with_r...

I am honestly a bit mad at what JK Rowling is saying. A main theme in her books is about the power of love and openness, and I think what she tweeted goes against that. I don't agree at all with what she's said, although I personally prefer being neutral in debates like this.

That being said, I also don't want to boycott the Harry Potter series the way some people are doing. I don't see the point in giving up some of my favorite books in an effort to speak out against their author, because I do still strongly admire what JK Rowling accomplished. I admire and love her work, and I am still going to do that despite the fact that I blatantly disagree with the author's actions and personal opinions.

(you're free to disagree with me)

Rheanna (goodreadscomuser_rheanna) I hate what J.K. Rowling is saying and I don’t really like her as a person. Harry Potter is all about love and she seems to be contradicting this with her comments. That said, I LOVE hp and probably always will and I agree that I don’t want to give that up. But I won’t be supporting J.K Rowling’s new content, such as the fantastic beasts movies or her new book The Ickabog. And I probably won’t recommend Harry Potter to people who haven’t read it, which I’ve done in the past, because I don’t want to push people to read from a problematic author.
Hope this makes sense.
