Potter Books

The first book was a kids book. The rest have gotten progressivly more adult. I wish that the last book was strictly an adult book. But its still going to be published as a kids book.

Harry Potter books.

I voted that they are everyone books, mostly because my option wasn't available.

The best and worst thing about the series is that JK Rowling was not a very good writer on the first book. There is no characterization, a silly plot, and creativity that rivals that of only George Lucas (no, that isn't a compliment).

The thing is, though, that the writing improves, the stories get better, the characters grow and gain more than one dimension.

I think they are everyone books, but should be used to show how bad writing can be and how one can improve as they keep writing.

Harry Potter

I certainly feel that Harry Potter is good for all ages. I am enjoying the books mostly because things mentioned in earlier books are linked to later events. I have kids who love the books and my mother reads them too.
