one of the lesser talked about fun things about intentionally reading more books is finding new stuff to be a bit of a hater about tbh
#and i know sometimes im probably just not properly picking up whatever the writer is putting down but whatever it's still fun
#to actually know what you think about stuff like the highly regarded classics and extremely popular hyped up things
#here are a few writers im a bit of a hater about w my opinions now btw
#neil gaiman: does not do it for me at alllll
#have read the graveyard book and american gods and hated almost every minute of both
#in american gods i just found the aesthetic ideas and characters completely unappealing and in the graveyard book
#i thought it was dreary and not well described enough... kept feeling like it was too bare bones in some way to picture things properly
#i was like 'hmm i wish this was one of his graphic novels instead bc i'd like to be able to see what's going on here a bit better...'
#also his humour just never lands for me and i do not often get his references either
#ray bradbury annoys me in a similar way to neil gaiman but also somewhat oppositely like where
#the way they write characters and plots and ideas and the stuff they care about gets on my nerves in an almost identical way
#that i don't know how to define except to say i had a bit of a 'same energy' experience reading Something Wicked This Way Comes
#and some of neil gaiman's stuff
#but unlike neil gaiman i think that ray bradbury attempts to describe things unusually so much and TOO much
#to the point that it takes me out of the story in a different yet similar way
#to how the lack of description in neil gaiman's stuff does
#what else have i become a bit of a hater about or did not get the appeal of lately? hmmm
#oh hp lovecraft hahahaha
#least scary stories ever god everything he's scared of is so dumb
#like even aside from his extremely racist takes and fear of the 'exotic other' his fears about being cosmically insignificant are just like
#yeah and? whats so scary about that hahaha i literally just dont get it
#also the amount he writes dialogue in heavy accents annoys the shit out of me
