Oooohhhgoddd has anyone else read Terry Pratchett's Wintersmith? It was fabulous. And I have to say, right after Deathly Hallows Pratchett's writing is.. indescribable. I'm not dissing Rowling, but Pterry's writing just flows way better for me.

I want to draw fanart but as always with Discworld I feel like I can't put my mental image to paper (or canvas, as the case may be, because this one would have to be painted. With like, real paint) and that it's a waste of time to even try. orz

And I still want a copy of Where's My Cow?. I hear it has Vimes's own version of the story in it and I. WANT.

Oh, no doubt Rowling has something going for her. She's seemed to of found this kind of simple dream that lies in the back of millions of peoples mind. Granted, Harry Potter isn't a very in depth dream. But I suppose when it comes down to it, people, sometimes, just want to read an easy-on-the-brain novel and hear the heart-warming tale of The Boy Who Lived, even if it's not the most... clever writing.

Harry Potter really does appeal to the cliche in everyone. :B It just irks me when people compare HP to the likes of Tolkein or something. People are happy that Harry Potter is being read by millions of young children, 'anything to get a kid to read these days', blahblah, i just don't want to see them reading only Harry Potter. >:
