To be fair to rowling middle aged redditors were probably not the intended audience

@RustyCrab she got bronied

@sun @RustyCrab it's so funny how rightoids (correctly) called Harry Potter poorly written shit for children and making fun of it's adult fans for over a decade and then Rowling became a chud and now they all jack off to it

@vriska @RustyCrab I am not an HP fan but it is actually noticeably better children's fiction than anything else I've seen, she put a lot of work into worldbuilding and creative ideas and continuity.

@sun@shitposter.world @vriska@lizards.live @RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co this is a bad take. I loved harry potter as a kid but I remember lots of other great books and authors from my childhood that I am 99% would hold up a lot better. Dianna Wynne Jones, Robin McKinley, Garth Nix and Phillip Pullman are some examples I can think of off the top of my head.

And while I do think Harry Potter was very creative, worldbuilding and continuity in the series are objectively terrible.

@anemone @vriska @RustyCrab you know what I'm a bad fiction reader tbh so I'll say it's better than slop. I can only compare it to philip pullman which I think is overrated tbh
