Re: Harry Potter sucks

i had an argyument with my friend abotu this today. i dont' like potter, she LOVES it, she thinks its unique and amazing and the most twisty thing ever. but i think, perhaps, it just comes down to what fantasy you read and how often. if you read more fantasy you can see the plot twists coming, you can see how it compares to other books in the genre, and it doesn't seem as amazing.

thats my thoughts on it anyway. cos the people i know who LOVE potter and think it's the best, dont' read any other fantasy at all. i have some friends who do read other fantasy and who still love potter, but not usually for the, it's unique, it's twisty, reasons, but more because they think it's entertaining, or well written.

so yeah. to me, it's not original, because i read a lot of fantasy. i guess to the majority of people who don't read fantasy is that amazing.

or something.
