Question

Why are people proud NOT to have read any Harry Potter books?
I dont get why people sounds so happy to have not read it. Dont they understand that all they are doing is missing out?

Answer

I love the argument that its a kids book and it would be so below an adult to read them... Whatever, to each his or her own. br br Im and I loved them. I have never met a book about teenage wizards before, sorry I didnt know they were so prevalent. I thought they were very well written and very enthralling. br brI think people are really limiting themselves by refusing to read books that are labeled as childrens books. They could really be missing some good entertaining material. I know there are many YA novels that I have really enjoyed. Why should it matter if it was written for adults or not. If I enjoy it, I enjoy it, no matter how hard the vocabulary is. br brAnd of course, there are always people who seem to hate whatever is popular, just because it is popular and they just like going against the tide.br brBut anyways, to the Question writer, just ignore the prideful remarks, and enjoy the series. brbrEdit Just to be clear. If you have no interest or really didnt like them, thats cool. Its just the uppity attitude that bugs me.
