(Actually I was thinking somewhat along the same lines but in lower case and without the exclamation points. )

These are books intended for kids and the rest of us have come along for the ride. I'm personally really impressed with how she developed the story and the characters through all the books. These books aren't great literature but since they're so much fun to read, who cares? Rowling could have gotten all the details right...if she'd spent so much time writing each book that the momentum and excitement would just about disappear.

So that's my two cents worth and a for a fun read. Now I'll go back to reading everyone's analysis and nitpicking which I'm enjoying just the same. You're all very articulate and thoughtful while all I can come up with is: Book good.
