I don't get why they're so popular, either - yeah, they're good books, and the story's quite original (well the first book is), and the Rowling definitely has talent; but they're no better than a lot of other books!.
Though I think Twilight is only popular because of a Potter-backlash (people who don't want to appear conformist [by reading Potter] but who just end up conforming to something else - poor them)!
So despite the dozens of people saying 'anyone who doesn't like Potter needs their heads examined' and 'oh, they're fantastically well-written' and suchlike, I have to agree with you and say I just don't know why they're so interesting to some people!. Sorry, didn't really answer the question after all that, did I!?!?

I have read the Potter series, by the wayWww@QuestionHome@Com

Harry Potter is awesome!. Why!? Because the characters are relatable and realistic!. They have flaws and make mistake just like real people!. Characters in books like Twilight are not developed and are 2- dimesional!. Harry Potter is also unique and very well written!. When you read it, you feel like you can relate to the situations!. It's made for all ages!. I love it!. Maybe if you read it you might understand!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like them because of the incredibly layered plot line!. I can't imagine having all that go into my mind!. It's truly amazing, in my opinion!.
The characters are freaking hilarious as well!. You grow to either love or hate them by the time you're through (and you have plenty of opportunity to, let me say)!.
Not to mention that JK Rowling is an amazing writer!. You get a 7-book escape from the real world through her words, and it's quite nice!.
I think you'd like them if you gave them a chance!. I personally didn't care for the 1st-3rd books the first time I read the series, but I was determined to see what all the hype was about!. I ended up loving the series, and rereading it until I liked every single book (including the first few)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It gets me sticking to it all night, reading it until I finish halfway and its already close to midnight! I have read all the books already, but I'm starting the first chapter of the first book in Twilight already!. I don't want to compare them, because I'm pretty sure they are both great series!Www@QuestionHome@Com

They pander to the anger and confusion of teenagers and preteens towards adults!. In general juvenile fiction is about the process of discovey in learning what the transition to adulthood is and how it is made!. From being powerless and dependent through the discovery of the flaws of adults to understanding of how to operate with adults in an adult world to get things done!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
