Contrasting to my earlier comment of praising Harry Potter, I can remotely understand the other point of view: Harry Potter is not that great as people claim it to be. People state that they cannot relate to the novel because it is merely fiction, because wizards, witches, wands, etc. clearly do not exist in real life. Others may think that it is just a bunch of rubbish where it is ideal for kids, not adults. However, this book is not only about magic; there are important lessons. For instance, Rowling states, ““We’ve all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That’s who we really are” (150). This shows that not everyone is 100% evil or pure hearted, there is not black and white, but a grey area. What distinguishes between people are our actions; do we choose to be good or bad? Therefore, although I understand why some people may not like Harry Potter, I think that it’s a great novel where it teaches morals as well as fun magic.
