I think that property is essential to really good books. The running of Aragorn and Legolas and Gimli is a long boring slogto read. The trek up Mt Doom is agonizing. The transformation of writing from the awesome kids tale of Sorcerer's Stone thru the awkwardly adolescent middle books to the powerfully adult writing and plots of Deathly Hallows is such a effective parallel to the kids growing up.
