About the Author

J. K. (Joanne Kathleen) Rowling was born in Gloucestershire, U. K. on July 31, 1965. She also writes fiction novels under the name of Robert Galbraith. Rowling attended Tutshill Primary and then went on to Wyedean Comprehensive where she was made Head Girl in her final year. She received a degree show more in French from Exeter University. She later took some teaching classes at Moray House Teacher Training College and a teacher-training course in Manchester, England. This extensive education created a perfect foundation to spark the Harry Potter series that Rowling is renowned for. After college, Rowling moved to London to work for Amnesty International, where she researched human rights abuses in Francophone Africa, and worked as a bilingual secretary. In 1992, Rowling quit office work to move to Portugal and teach English as a Second Language. There she met and married her husband, a Portuguese TV journalist. But the marriage dissolved soon after the birth of their daughter. It was after her stint teaching in Portugal that Rowling began to write the premise for Harry Potter. She returned to Britain and settled in Edinburgh to be near her sister, and attempted to at least finish her book, before looking for another teaching job. Rowling was working as a French teacher when her book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published in June of 1997 and was an overnight sensation. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone won the British Book Awards Children's Book of the Year, was shortlisted for the Guardian Fiction Award, and received a Commended citation in the Carnegie Medal awards. She also received 8,000 pounds from the Scottish Arts Council, which contributed to the finishing touches on The Chamber of Secrets. Rowling continued on to win the Smarties Book Prize three years in a row, the only author ever to do so. At the Bologna Book Fair, Arthur Levine from Scholastic Books, bought the American rights to Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone for the unprecedented amount of $105,000.00. The book was retitled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone for it's American release, and proceeded to top the Best Seller's lists for children's and adult books. The American edition won Best of the Year in the School Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, Parenting Magazine and the Cooperative Children's Book Center. It was also noted as an ALA Notable Children's Book as well as Number One on the Top Ten of ALA's Best Books for Young Adults. The Harry Potter Series consists of seven books, one for each year of the main character's attendance at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. All of the books in the series have been made into successful movies. She is number 1 on the Hollywood Reporter's '25 Most Powerful Authors' 2016 list. She has also written Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. She won the 2016 PEN/Allen Foundation Literary Service Award. In 2016 she, along with Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, published the script of the play Harry Potter and the cursed child. It became an instant bestseller. Rowling's first novel for an adult audience,The Casual Vacancy, was published by Little Brown in September 2012. She made The New York Times Best Seller List with her title Very Good Lives: The Fringe Benefits of Failure and the Importance of Imagination. She published two bestselling fiction novels under the name of Robert Galbraith: The Cuckoo's Calling and The Silkworm. (Bowker Author Biography) show less

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Parts I and II… by Jack Thorne John Tiffany J K Rowling

i just really liked Cursed Child, i kept going up and down on my liking of it as I read it, but now that I’ve finished i can officially say i'm a fan. Its not as good as just Jo doing the books because we’re missing her wonderful descriptions and writing that goes in between the dialogue that really makes that world come to life (i’m sure the play production fills this gap) but gosh it was so fun to have these characters back, talking to each other in canon and weirdly adulting and parenting. I like the fact that she continued the series but wrote a different story- Albus is extremely frustrating but I understand the why behind his actions and I understand that he is not Harry 2.0, something that could have been all too easy a trap for Jo to fall into.

I do wish we’d seen more of the Weasley’s, and Teddy, and Luna, and every other beautiful character, and i hope if she writes more of this wonderful world that its just a straight novel, but damn I’m just so happy; we though all this was over 9 years ago and it wasn’t and that’s amazing!!!… (more)

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling

As there are over a 1000 reviews, I don't think I need to go into what the book is about. I will just say it is a very good follow up to the first book. I enjoyed reading it.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by J. K. Rowling

This book really got my six-year-old into reading. At 27 he has a great love of books and a fantastic personal library. It is a well-toldstory, full of hmour, and a great page turner. Maybe it's not "great" fiction, but the dialogue is well crafted and it's still a rollicking good read. And it's better than the movie.
