Honestly the most shocking thing about this for me is that I had no idea that Rowling was actually still writing. I knew about the first book she wrote under that pen name but had no idea there were so many of them.https://twitter.com/PinkNews/status/1305523700238815238 …

Do people actually read them or is it just vanity publishing?

I think it's a self fulfilling thing. people read them, but they read them because they know they're by JK Rowling. the first in the series only sold 1,500 copies under a pen name, and then sales skyrocketed when they revealed it was actually by Rowling https://www.theguardian.com/books/2013/jul/15/jk-rowling-cuckoos-calling-bestseller …pic.twitter.com/vfQd1Ds8iE

Yeah I remember that from the first book but I naively assumed that this wouldn't be enough to sustain a series given that she's not actually a very good writer.

I *said* it was naive (Honestly it's more that I went "lol" and immediately forgot about her until she decided to make herself relevant again by having bad opinions on Twitter)
