Precisely, and what's more it could definitely prove as something more enjoyable. Perhaps I'll incorporate a bit more Harry Potter; although, I actually do argue that it's good literature, and liable to be a classic. I think in most cases, though, the great literary works generally are standalone and not series--interesting. A new thesis I think. Still, Lord of The Rings is a bit of a exception; though, some might argue they're not great literary works at all, and just a linguist's egotistical way of letting the world know what he created.
Still, yes! I think I would have to monitor it; really, though, I'd have to assign the full reading to everyone in class, and hold a discussion why someone thinks it's bad, and why others think it's good. Oh that could be fun.
