I voted Harry Potter but only because Twilight is terrible and the Tolkien books get way more credit than they deserve.

I'm not saying the Tolkien books are bad and they were definitely something different in their day, just Tolkien is a bad writer. He can make a fantastically detailed world, tell a good story, but can't write for shit.

Clarify that. You mean Tolkien's like George Lucas in that he's a good worldbuilder and comes up with excellent general plot, but then falters in core execution?


Yup, that.
