I'm with Meesh on this one. I didn't get the feeling that all you were interested in was a genie's sexuality. There's nothing wrong with that. You're intrigued by it, which is totally cool with me. I've read a bit online about genies and how they were created, but I really like some of the ideas you have for your own fan theory. That is one thing I love about this fandom. There are so many things that make you go hmm.

Meesh, I can totally believe that that you haven't read the Harry Potter books because neither have I. I know, blasphemous! Laughing

I'm an English major who never read them. How do I sleep at night?! At least it's nice to know I'm not alone. Laughing

I once saw that Gollem and Jinni book at Chapters (Canadian bookstore), but I didn't get it. It did look really cool. Maybe I can find it somewhere else? I would love to know how that author implements Arabic mythology into the text. Did that author write that Jinni wars book too or was that someone else?

And yes, I completely agree with both of you. So many books to read, so little time.

Shamefully impressive? I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or an insult Laughing

I don't know why I never really read them to be honest. I mean, I watched all of the movies and found the characters to be really interesting, but I just never read the books. It's weird, I know. Maybe I will one day.

What is the Jinni Wars all about? And you wrote that it sort of reads like a fanfic? Any particular reasons why?
