A question

[mary_j_59]

I've noticed that some of my posts get no response at all, while others get lots of comments. To give two examples, NOBODY responded to my post about Green Knowe. And those books are, in my opinion, really beautiful - possibly among the best fantasies ever written, and I'd be happy to talk about them. No one responded to the clip of Michelle Paver and the wolves. And that, too, is a very well-written series, in which the teen protagonists grow in believable ways. I had one response to the news that Megan Whalen Turner's fourth Attolia book is actually coming out. Then I put up a post about how unhappy I am with Harry Potter these days, and suddenly there's an intense discussion about Snape and his character going on. Okay, it's true, I love Snape. But at this point, two years after the last book, no one's mind is going to be changed about him. At least, I don't think so.

Is it the case that people visit here only for my posts on Snape? Just wondering.

Yes, about the meta! This is what I meant. To my amazement, I can sometimes still find new things to say - but, after two years, it's pretty much all been said. The books may be puzzling and frustrating, but they're not that deep!

But my other purpose in posting was to introduce my friends to some truly excellent books. In my more recent post, I've got some links - it would take ten minutes to explore them, when you have the time. Then you can see what I'm talking about. I have a feeling, based on what you say of your literary tastes, that you might not be a Green Knowe fan, but the other two series just might appeal to you. YOu never know-
