it's me. i resisted reading the Harry Potter books for a long time, because i thought that something that popular couldn't be any good (Titanic, the DaVinci Code, Stephen King)...
boy was i wrong. J.K. Rowling can write one captivating tale.
it's solid fantasy writing, and an astonishingly good premise. it has it's funny bits, sure, but there's a tautness to her storytelling that's really captivating.
i can see why it was (and is) so popular. shame on me for scoffing.
