I find little to praise. I especially resent that the author ignores everything that she quoted J.K. Rowling as saying during the biography at the beginning. The author repeatedly excludes about two-thirds of Rowling's readership by assuming that the books draw only the interest of children, even though Rowling said she wrote the HP series because it would entertain HER.

So far I'm not impressed. Just because a book explores a work of young adult fiction doesn't mean that the author should write as if she is a young adult posing an essay for English class.
