I didn't read the Harry Potter books but I thought I'd try this new one she has created under a different name---I won't be pursuing any more, this was so tedious and boring, the characters cold and stupid you just don't like them and the old old storyline of the 'poor misunderstood actress' that commited suicide etc. but her brother (adopted) can't accept it so hires a PI, well the PI is a down and out character that needs the job (of course) and he can't even remember his temp girl's name? but she sticks with him etc.--I gave up pretty early in the book and I just didn't care enough to flip ahead to see who the murderer turned out to be because I didn't really care. I can tolerate bad language sometimes but she uses the 'f' word way way too much making you just skip as much as you can so you can skip over that part
