According to this reviewer Rowling's books are "ferociously dull" and "long-winded" and "there is no suspense", how odd that despite these handicaps she became the first person in human history to become a billionaire from writing books. But its not really surprising when you think about it; put yourself in the reviewers place, you've written 2 books and gotten a few good reviews but neither has sold  well so you can't quit your day job and your books are starting to go to the remainder pile in bookstores, just one step from the recycling pulp mill; meanwhile Rowling buys a castle in Scotland. And now you are asked to review Rowling's latest book.
