LOTR is way better than Harry Potter <I>from an adults point of view</I>. But Potter isn't that bad. They're not just some stupid kids books with no plot like some people believe. I've read then several times (15 yrs. old)and I really like them. Sure its aim is at a younger generation, but at least it is getting kids to read! For some kids Harry Potter is the first book they picked up, and now they can't stop reading. That's a good thing!!
