I'm sure there were people who liked LotF; after all, they made a film people went to see, presumably because they liked the book.
I read heaps as a kid, around 6 books a week. One of the teachers told my father that my name was on the cards of most of the books in my primary school library, which was why I had graduated to adult books well before I was ready for the emotional impact. I sobbed over books about the Holocaust, and I still remember them very clearly.
It's more like 1-2 books a week now, partly due to having other interests like online friendships, but I've noticed that if I go for too long without a novel, I feel deprived and lacking in something important and need to get a fix.
