I mean, the prose is certainly better. Rowling is unimaginative and repetitive in her use of language. The number of times she reuses phrases (like, “Ron’s untidy scrawl,”) is criminal. She’s a lot like Agatha Christie; great concepts, mundane execution.
HP has the better film franchise though. ASOUE just had the Carrey film, which was alright but did not follow the books and left a LOT of mystery from the books off
the show was really good…until season 3. my favorite character being reduced to a single laugh and a painting was the nail in the coffin, and the finale was just bad
SoUE is better than HP. I said what I said and I’ll die on this hill.

I much prefer when Ron ejaculated (loudly).

Really not a high bar, tbh. Just don’t promote slavery along with maintaining the exact status quo that lead to wizard hitler, and you’re miles ahead.
