I’m not going to lie. I liked the Harry Potter movies, I even ended up reading a few of the books afterwards. They were ok children’s stories that are essentially the heroes journey and very similar to Star Wars. But that’s it. It’s a good book to get children into reading long form novels.

The millennials who have made their whole identity Harry Potter or shaped their whole world view around some message they thought they picked up in Harry Potter need to grow up and read another book. Preferably not das kapital. But any other book.
