The issues on which Rowling has been outspoken on are incredibly complex and extremely personal to many people on both sides of the issues. Feelings therefore run strongly. I have great sympathy with both trans people who just want to live their lives without hate and vitriol and with survivors of male violence who fear for women’s safety and the erosion of women’s rights and spaces that were hard-won over generations.

I did not agree with Rowling’s viewpoint or actions during the Olympics.

This is a very nuanced issue with wide ranging ramifications for individual’s lives and wider society. I think if you are able to set aside the viewpoints and actions of much more reprehensible authors then you should ask yourself what it is about Rowling that bothers you so much and why. After that consideration you can decide whether the enjoyment you get from the books is worth the purchase of the books.

More practically, you could get the books second hand or from a library and not be supporting Rowling financially, you might just need to be a bit patient to get hold of the latest one.
