Actually I love the Tolkien books and the Harry POtter books. They are amazing. But I have heard too many bad things about Haryy POtter and I want to get away from it as soon as possible!

I know I may sound like an HP-hater in some of my earlier posts, but the truth is, I like the books. As I said, I just don't like certain parts of them, but then, there are a lot of good books like that -- with a couple of elements which the reader might not find as fun, but that definitely don't spoil the books.

Why take LOTR over chocolate when you can read your LotR and eat chocolate too?

Harry Potter is godd and it can't be compared to any of Tolkien's works. Furthermore, when people say that they hate Harry Potter they have not read the books or they have some problem with having a good time reading.

Thank's for this thread. I really hate Harry Potter.
It is a book (and a movie) for little children. What is all this hype about. Are people that dumb by now that they have to read children books and watch movies for 5 year olds?

1. In general I have no problem with childrens books. There is one series of books which I really loved as a child and I would read them again if I get hold of one of them. I own only one of them and I read it plenty times, the others I had from our library. 2. The books didn't bother me first, but all the hype about the movie and that stuff really annoyed me. I mean it is a childrens book. (Yeah, that again). 3. And what really annoyed me was the fact that everybody compared LotR to Harry Potter. I mean, hello, LotR is a book for adults and has a high standart. And Harry Potter is simply a book for children. You can't compare these two books. 4. Again to the childrens books. I think HP is a childrens book. But as I said before, I have nothing against childrens books. I mean, children should have something to read, too.
