Joanne Kathleen Rowling, född 1965, antog pennamnet J.K. Rowling för utgivningen av Harry Potter.
Hon växte upp i England och skrev ofta fantasyberättelser som barn.
Rowling mötte utmaningar under tonåren och hämtade inspiration från sina erfarenheter till karaktärer som Hermione.
Hennes svåra relation med sin far och hennes mors sjukdom påverkade hennes skrivande.
Rowlings engelsklärare mindes henne som en del av en grupp begåvade flickor.
Författarens barndomsvän ägde en turkos Ford Anglia, som inspirerade en liknande bil i hennes böcker.

This site is a total game-changer. I've been flying through book summaries like never before. Highly, highly recommend.

Worth my money and time, and really well made. I've never seen this quality of summaries on other websites. Very helpful!

— Em

Highly recommended!! Fantastic service. Perfect for those that want a little more than a teaser but not all the intricate details of a full audio book.
