"and probably most people would agree with me about one of them—in each case"... So in what sense are these books overrated?https://twitter.com/prospect_uk/status/892419656455081984 …

Yes, though if the overrating is specific to a social group, then it wouldn't be surprising if it's balanced by dismissal among other groups
Dennett explicitly says a majority would agree with him in each case - factoring in non-believers? - so the overrating is not general!

I guess he's quantifying overrating in terms of negative effects

Presumably that's his motivation. If the question had been about which books most divide opinion, I'd be more sympathetic!
