Literary Greats My Ass!

J. D. Salinger sucks. There. I said it.

Bret Easton Ellis? Also sucks.

And I've come to this conclusion after only reading one of each of these authors' books.

Sue me.

sometimes an author's writing style is so obnoxious I can't appreciate the substance.

Which Salinger did you read?

I can't judge. My mom and I have the Dickens fight every now and again and it just goes to show that there's no accounting for taste. Mom loves his writing, I find it BORING!

Besides "Great Expectations" I cannot deal with Dickens.

And the Salinger book I read was "The Catcher in the Rye." LORD how I hated that book!
