I enjoyed Harry Potter a lot too. Definitely not the only enjoyable book I've ever read, but I'll say I probably enjoyed it more than I have the Vonnegut I've read.

I also enjoyed WoT. For a while. Looking back, it was sort of...bleh. How can you criticize the Potter series for being "profit-motivated" and then recommend WoT in the same sentence?

In the realm of "recent fantasy literature"...I just read "The Name of the Wind" and enjoyed it.
