I've read them.  They're worth reading but suffer from a disturbing trend:
they get longer and less focused with each book.  I don't know whether or
not it's because she's so powerful an author now that editors don't dare
touch her stuff, but Rowling *needs* a good editor (and that's no insult).
The last book would have been much better weighing in at about 75 fewer
pages.
