The more I read about JK the more I hate to love Harry Potter...

You can enjoy it for what it is, just don't support it with money/clicks. Buy books or merch 2nd hand, avoid web traffic to their official portals, sail the high seas for content etc..

I'm a fan of Neil Gaiman's writing, but him or his publishers or anything that could potentially support them or anything tied to him are a no go for me since his allegations came out.

I know what you mean matey. Still feels a little dirty though.

I know exactly what you mean. Usually when I take the kids on road trips in the summertime we used to listen to Harry Potter audio books. That was our tradition. But I just couldn't stomach it this year. Just felt icky.

So instead we did how to train your dragon narrated by David Tennant. Excellent highly recommend.
