> I'm *still not* denying that they are fairly enjoyable books - for what they are. And what they are is an example of the use of character, plot, and setting to grab and hold a reader's attention. It's not a personal attack on J.K. Rowling, Brunnen_G, or anyone else. It's just an opinion.

*blinks a little* I didn't read your post as a personal attack on Rowling or me. You gave your opinion of the books, so I replied to it. If my post came across as a personal attack on *you*, I apologise.

I guess that's what I get for posting a message quickly before leaving for work, and not checking it first. Usually I take a good hour or more to write a post like that, and I like to get all my arguments lined up and in good working order.
