What put me off was that three of the numbers were in sequence (eight, nine, ten), which made me leery of the fourth (one).

The way I read it, it's supposed to be how one could express themselves verbally. For example, to air one's grievances, to speak one's mind, to state one's case or to voice one's opinion.

You don't bring that kind of thing up in an interview just because it's a silly coincidence. Especially not worded like that.

And don't put words in my mouth. Ignoring that it's not reaching I have at no point said that I dislike her because of the Catch 22 nonsense.
It wasn't an interview. She was asked on twitter for some 'fun facts' about herself. It's exactly the kind of answer a person might give to that question.

I never commented on your feelings for Rowling. Just pointed out that there are reasons enough to dislike her.

Waiting until one is 22 to read Catch 22 because it has 22 in the name is pretentious. The act of being an easy/mainstream read really has nothing to do with it.
That might have been a memorable coincidence?

There's more than enough to dislike about Rowling without reaching.

How is it pretentious?

It's a pretty easy, mainstream read. It's not like she's claiming to have read Dostoevsky in the original Russian.

If the purpose of that letter from the mom was meant for us to be more sympathetic, I think it backfired. She had a strong start at the beginning, blaming a combination of her son's disability and his medication, but then we get to the end and she starts to rattle off how everyone else in society is at fault and she just loses me.
No she didn't. She blamed the lack of schooling options and the school's failure to implement the education plan. It was specific.
