So I have heard/read a LOT of arguments over this topic, and I find it ridiculous. Here are some reasons why they can't be compared with each other:
1- uandishi styles. Rowling writes in a descriptive third-person, whereas Meyer writes in a first-person account of a seventeen mwaka old girl. wewe can't expect Bella to talk like a professional poet of some sort, I doubt many average teenage girls do that.
2- Plot. Harry Potter is mainly about wizards and fighting. Twilight is about Wanyonya damu and romance... Totally the same (Major burning sarcasm).
3- Audience. Harry Potter is aimed for children. Before the whole nagging about "It's suitable for everyone" wewe are liars! Babies cannot read, toddlers cannot read and so many others cannot read. Don't lie. Twilight is mainly aimed at teenagers and young adults.
4- Characters. None of them are alike, not a thing in common. They are all unique in their own ways.
5- Message. Twilight is basically a message of upendo in all forms (diversity love?). Harry Potter is about friendship.
These are a few of so many reasons why they can't actually be compared. They are too different. If anyone has any zaidi points, please reply. It shall be fun to attempt some kind of bridges being built between the fans. It would be nice to be friendly with each other, and have kind discussions about the books/movies together.

Now, i have to admit i upendo both series! I'd say harry potter is unisex and appropriate for all ages, whilst twilight adresses mainly to teenage girls. HP talks about friendship and love, while twilight is zaidi romantic! Also, hp gives lessons of life, although maybe in some cases, i would prefer kusoma twilight.
Finally, They are both written kwa two very talented and imaginative writers, j.k rowling and stephenie meyer. They wrote these vitabu to give teens (and not only) inspiration and time of happiness. So, if wewe don't like one of these two series, don't blame them! We can't all have the same tastes!
