I must say, I am not impressed with Miss Hill here. She’s the one who needs to expand her mind here, turning down a work of art like Watchmen. Probly in favor of one of Oprah’s vapid suggestions
Unfortunately most adults feel that if it is not a “work of literary art” then it’s not worth anything. I’m in my 40’s, and have read all the Harry Potter books as they came out.. even the first one. I have read “The Kingdom keepers” and “Eric Rex”. All of which are considered “children’s books”. Load of wash. If it’s a good story, I will read it.

The thing is, Watchmen IS a “work of literary art”

Watchmen was recently listed in Time Magazine’s 100 Greatest Novels of All Time. I think that’s evidence enough to go to Borders and pick up a copy.
