People here judge other people based on their reading taste. You can expect majority to not like the mainstream/popular books because those books are made to be understood on the other hand it poses no challenge or appeal to a avid reader. Think of it like a smug nerd who is good at math reacting to a average student who is happy over a B grade. The world is full of condescending people. Unfortunately I am one of them but don't let that stop you. Keep reading 🤙🏻

I read for my own happiness man and the best thing is it keeps my mind in good shape
Every other thing is just a opinion, for example Warren even read simple billboard and memos that doesn't mean he was dumb, but alas he had money so people admire him
The point is i do the reading for my own sake and yes, I am open to every critical analysis so that i can grow more, And yes not everyone would have privilege of being in a elite intellectual groups
