i love when people say about childrens lit (usually harry potter) “looking back it’s actually written really simplistically, its not good :/“ like… yea cause it’s a kids book and your not a kid anymore lol if you made it to age 21 basing your personality off harry potter then clearly it was good enough to have a lasting effect on you, and regardless of “good” if any book or series can mean so much to so many children then that’s value in and of itself
