Renata | 3 comments Rowling has admitted in an interview having written The Cuckoos Calling under a pseudonym to see how much success his book would have if Harry Potter fans didn't know she had written it. We can see her little experiment did not last for long.

Jonathan (jonathan1) However it was published in April, and I am astounded her secret has lasted so long. Her experiment was successful, she has gained high critical acclaim with her pseudonym.

Dionna | 7 comments I'm waiting for all of the bashing and Potter comparisons to start being that the secret is out, when before, it received very favorable reviews.

Oh I totally agree Dionna!

I am sorry that it was found out that Joanne wrote the book. It must be so hard for her to get good reviews after writing such an outstanding series.


Z (Through The Inked Pages) (dezsa) | 11 comments Honestly, it angers me when people expect all of her books to be all about Harry Potter. I haven't read The Casual Vacancy nor The Cuckoos Calling, but I'm sure they're fantastic adult novels as she is a talented author. People need to give Jo a chance.
