If you can get passed the weird shit, the books are pretty good, but yea a lot of the stuff in said books, are just pointless.

I was referring to the personal drama, not the books. I've listened to several during road trips and have been fully entertained; my wife is also a big fan overall, and we even have a plan for me to cosplay as Harry; the only inaccuracy is that I'm only 6'5".
