I’ve been in this group for months now and I’m always surprised when I read that some (to me plain/normal) book has “destroyed” someone or “made them bawl their eyes out”. What is a book you liked but that left you unimpressed?
I’ll start: The Road, The Nightingale.

Most of the books I’ve read. A lot of people seek out books that will give them a strong emotional response which IMHO is a very childish way to use books. Books can bring you great joy and wisdom, why spend your time jerking off with your own tears as lube instead? It’s ridiculous.
I don’t get why so many people want to be destroyed by a book. It’s fine, they can do what they want, I just don’t get the appeal.
