Many followers of "Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling are pointing out that her newest book appears to bear some similarities to her own life, as the plot revolves around an artist who is doxxed online.
"The Ink Black Heart," written under Rowling’s pseudonym, Robert Galbraith, follows Edie Ledwell, the creator of a popular YouTube cartoon who is "persecuted by a mysterious online figure," according to the book's Amazon description. The novel, which was released Tuesday, is the sixth book in her thriller series “Cormoran Strike.”
