the only reason they are being compared is the fact that they have to do with fantasy and mystical creatures!. but they are nothing a like!. harry potter is about a wizard who has no idea why he has a scar on his forehead!. and the series just lead you to find out why!. in twilight its about the love story of a human girl and a vampire!. and in the series it just tells you the great lengths that each one of them will do for one another to keep them alive!. twilight is one of those great love stories that will be remembered by the love the characters have for each other!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

um no!.!.!. they are both really amazing books which have both been/are best sellers, the authors are still alive, there is a batle between good and evil (harry v!.s!. voldermort bella + cullens v!.s!. evil vampires) they both feature love (but more strongly in twilight) they are easy to read, the books were being compared long before robers pattinson was castWww@QuestionHome@Com

both are:
-fictional novels
-based on the lives of teens
-read by everyone literate
(appeals to a wide audience)
-series (HP=7!?, Tw=3)
-unique plots
-new perspectives
-AND have relatively unknown authors who seemed to pop out of nowhere but dropped straight into the hearts of many with their booksWww@QuestionHome@Com

I think that may have something to with it but it may be the fact that both harry potter and twilight's fan base are tweens and teens!.!.!.and for the fact that they both do with the supernatural!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think that it is because they are both major bestsellers and that they are both directed at teensWww@QuestionHome@Com

Because the Twilight fans think it will be as big as Harry Potter!. Keep on dreaming!Www@QuestionHome@Com

the fact that they are both a series, young adult based and both movies has a lot to do with it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
