Really? I know many (ex) HP fans and none of them take it super seriously
No I mean current fans, not ex fans. ex fans don't, but the people I've met that self-describe as a "fan" of Harry Potter does seem to think highly of it
I meant to say both, I know current and ex fans who all would speak highly of the story but who don’t pretend like it’s high literature. I think those are very different things. Most people don’t care if what they’re reading is the best written book or whatever. If the story speaks to them then that’s enough to love it and become a fan.
I meant speak highly as in speak of it as high literature. It's all anecdotal I guess, but I can tell you those people are out there and they're not uncommon in my experience
