I suppose Harry Potter could have been better had it been written as one book like LOTR. With books 6 and 7 some of the contents of 1-5 seems a bit random. That's not to say they're not great though.

I'm wondering though if Harry Potter would be as it is, had the Lord of the Rings (and the Hobbit) not been written.

4 and 5 are easily the best potter books, IMO.

With 6 and 7, it went all srs and just ended up pompous, boring, and far worse than 4 and 5.

My favorite is the 6th, but yeah...the 7th was disappointing.

It has merit. Some scenes are very well done, so well done that you kinda make a series of scenes in your imagination while you read it. Overall though, I didn't really dig it.
