Yea, I like really tried to read TCV without comparing it to the fact that she wrote HP. But even so it was still hard; however, her writing a book under a pseudonym is not surprising and awesome all the same. Good for her - shows that she wants to write still, but is trying to put HP behind her and write for pure pleasure of writing and NOT to be compared to past works.

Pity that some of the critics couldn't do the same for Casual Vacancy, but hopefully - and it looks like it is - TCC will be better in terms of not being compared to past works. I just hope that by revealing herself, it won't put a damper on the critiques.
