The problem with Harry Potter isn’t the author, it’s that they’re (barely) mid books for babies lol.

I swear like 70% of readers are not literature fans. They're just doing escapist nostalgia on a loop. Repeatedly reading Potter into adulthood is fucking wild lmao

even then the mid books are the first three, rest are shit

Crazy that the children's series about magic isn't more artistically sound and thematically complex, what is the world coming to?

Fair enough. Not like they're anywhere close to favorites of mine or anything. Was just the most immediate non-Gaiman example of books by a bad person I could come up with.
