So, at the time the first book came out I was 14 and lived in a group home, and to have a fascimile of ‘school’ (I had yet to be enrolled at the local HS) one of the staff stuck me in a room and tried forcing me to read Harry Potter and I adamantly refused because it read like such crap after a few pages. Mind you, I was already a teen and had been reading Dragonlance stuff by Weiss and Hickman for a few years, so this fantasy world seemed rather dull to me. To this day still never had any interest.
