I don't understand why there are so many people that refuse to read books like Harry Potter or Twilight for that matter. The most I can get out of anyone is that they don't want to read it just because its "the cool thing" or the "most popular" thing.
FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!! Its like saying I'm not going to be Mormon just because everyone is so excited about being Mormon and thinks it so great. That is part of the reason we share the gospel. Because its a good thing. I am in no way saying that Harry Potter and Twilight are better than religion or that everyone should read those books or see the movies.
When you think about other movies like Batman, Transformers, or any other sell out popular movie you don't hear anyone complain and say "I'm not going to see it because I made a promise to myself that I wasn't going to see it because everyone else absolutely loves it and thinks its so good."
Granted I don't think that the Harry Potter movies are that great or Twilight. But I do like the books and have read them several times. Movies just really are never the same as the books but they can be as entertaining. But seriously what is with people just declaring they won't read a book or see a movie "just because".
