Basically, title.

I’m curious to see if the universe could be transmitted to the next generation, or if will stay a 90s-00s thing.

    Just found you in the All section but to contribute:

    I think if I have kids yea, if only because it is a complete collection of books that I still have. Growing up they were my first chapter book and the reading difficulty/complexity increases as the books go on, and they now form a complete story (rather than being open ended to add more books, or an unfinished saga). The era of riding the phenomena wave is well gone so I doubt it will culminate in anything more than passing interest. That said as they get older it would serve as a good litmus to see which side of the coin they pick - “separate work from the author” person or a “this person being a shitbag taints their work and they should not be rewarded”. Which, as a parent would be helpful to know as they grow.

    Making them sit down to read 7 books across a few months/years is a great lesson in itself too.
