Anyone who votes Horrible is a joke, even if you don't like Harry Potter or never gave it a chance, you have to admit she is a good writer.

Her books have set records for amount sold, when millions of people gather at midnight to buy the book when it first comes out and finishes in by 5 AM.

That doesn't mean its good because it sold it just means that kids are easily amused with bad fiction writing.

A good writer? You're kiding, right?
She writes fiction that appeals to kids, sure, that does not make her a good author though.
The quality of her prose is not that great, and the story is rather tedious, predictable and boring.
