L&L, Lord of the Rings is a book that has been hugely popular for something like 65 years - as a consequence of the huge amount of scholarship, hard work and genius Tolkien has put into it. No reason why it should not be extensively read in the far future; it may even be one of the 20th century books that will still be read in the 30th, and in the 40th.

30 years ago, I've read it many times, and enjoyed hugely, but like everything you've overdone, I came out of it with an indigestion - I'll go for something else, thank you.

Something along these lines can be said for Harry Potter - while it is not on par with the Lord of the Rings (and Rowling is no Tolkien!) the hard work and scholarship she has poured in her books are solid foundation for a very good book series. BUT the story could have been told in a third of the wordage she spent on him - the rest is filler. When the dust clouds have settled, it will be considered, perhaps, a solid midlist seller, but eventually it'll passa, let's say in half a century or less.

Twilight? Probably, some of you will perhaps remember some it by the time you've reached 30, but there's nothing to sustain the story. Granted, it's Bella's coming of age (and Jacob's) story, but nothing ever happens; nobody (except, I think,Jacob) really pays for anything, and therefore gets nothing in return...
