This one feels entitled asf to me, idk. "I'd read more if authors met me halfway and started writing shit I wanted to read again," as if all authors know you personally, and are purposefully DEPRIVING you of your god-given right to read books with YOUR favorite narration style. Never mind it is THEM putting in their blood, sweat and tears into this project.

Idk, you could easily say "I wish I could find more books that are third person, past tense, omniscient". But instead you say it like you think authors are all idiots ("it's not that hard") who (customer service nightmare voice) are losing a VERY VALUABLE CUSTOMER!

If OP said that though, the fault might potentially lie with them not looking hard enough to find the massive swaths of exactly that that already exists, or being pickier than they want to sound and not liking the ones that do exist.

No, it must be the authors who are wrong.

Take it down a couple of notches, you are trying too hard. 4/10 trolling.

I don't think that is what OP is saying. The word choice maybe comes off that way. But it seems like what OP is saying is that they aren't going to read things they don't want. They have clear preferences, and they aren't going to read stuff that doesn't fall into that.

No offense, I think you're being nitpicky of the wording. The gist of the secret is they won't read things that aren't interesting to them. The wording is a bit self-centered but this is so over the top.

I read it that way too, in a very snotty voice, with a sniff at the end.

Yup, the same.
Wording of this secret is so entitled
