Harry Potter is a hugely successful set of books but also very flawed ones. JK Rowling is both great at ideas but also a bad writer. It’s easy to criticise but harder to make that constructive criticism so this analysis videoessay breaks down exactly what needs changing or fixing with Harry Potter writing and the Philosopher’s Stone and why even doing this is an important writing exercise.
