You got me completely wrong. I myself started reading because of... can't really remember, but it certainly was something more along the lines of Rowling than Salinger. I'm not bashing her at all; but there's still a difference between books that simply entertain -- and believe me, I LOVE being entertained by books and understand that it is no mean feat to write books that fascinate people like the Potter series does -- and books that can do so much more.
But I understand that it is nearly impossible to discuss the quality of books in public.
