when it comes to their books.
The way LOTR was written made it so fucking boring, I dropped it halfway through The Two Towers.
The Twilight series, on the other hand, was so entertaining that I read it till the very end. I don’t care if the characters are trashy / drama is crap / whatever; I just want to be entertained.
LotR is really, really old. It’s another time with different reading habits and writing culture. It’s just logical it can’t really compete with current literature. It might beba masterpiece but when the audience changes its just not so appealing anymore.
