It wasn't so much that adults shouldn't read them..it was more the slavering, over the top enthusiasm that these cunts had for what is essentially a very middle of the road wholesale, rip off, of a franchise.
and as you say vipros, you may have read books 'in your childhood' that you still enjoy, that is completely understandable...but you were a child when you read them and they now reside in a special place that you can take comfort in revisiting. you didn't jump on some fucking bandwagon in your mid thirties and get caught up in a whole shitstorm of hype and mass hypnosis whereby regular member of the public where convinced into believeing that this franchise was in fact the greatest story EVER told.
and i stand by my comments, if you want to read them, fine. if you harp on about them being 'totally amazing', which they are not, then you go on the list, no exceptions

with that clarification I can totally see your point (might want to pull those trousers up *snigger*)
they are far from the best books ever, and far from original. there is no need for a media frenzy about any book frankly.

because your original post was so shit it needs pulling apart.
"if anyone professes and an interest in the books" is what you wrote, now, grammatical errors aside, that displays a ridiculous knee jerk reaction to what is a popular franchise of easy to read books with a long running plot line.
I was interested to see how it ended and as it happens I was disappointed. But I was still interested and I think the films have got progressively better as the franchise has gone on, which is a good thing.
There was a huge amount of hype about the books, but that was mainly driven by the media who had clearly been bum sexed by the advertisers.
I would stand by my comment that, if someone were to dismiss my opinions just because I liked reading something, that makes you the twat, and not me.

my grammatical errors, which i apologise for are mainly due to the fact that i operate a 'stealth mode' whilst posting here. being at work means it is necessary, therefore i have no time to check my posts fully. and for that i am truly sorry
however, my lithmus test regarding these shitty books has never, not once, let me down. most of the twats i have no choice but to communicate with, read them and LOVED them.
folk i previously did not know, who read them and LOVED them turned out to be glorious twats.
every
single
time
so, let's both stand beside our comments, for they help define us

I won't be happy until you admit that you are a cunt. And are wrong. And are worse that Hitler.
Go on, admit it. ADMIT IT!

backing down on the internet is easier than you think
give it a try, you might like it!
and yes, i am a cunt, to that i will freely admit...i would hazard a guess that 99.99% of b3tans are cunts, and very comfortable with it too!
