Because "good" is not what I'm looking for when I read books. Well, I love it when literature is good, but my main concern is cultural information. I read in order to understand how culture works, and for this purpose shitty books are as good as the good ones (sometimes much better).

Plus, of course, I get the information and material for thought. That's why I read "heavy stuff" such as "The Critique of Pure Reason" or this shitty-and-long historical thingie.

This being said, I'm head over heels in love with books. I don't even know why. I spent twenty-four hours reading my most recent favourite novel and then wrote a letter to the author (a normal letter not a fangirling one; I actually wanted to ask them something and to express my gratitude for their work).

That's fair enough - I suppose, rather than "if you're not enjoying it", I should have said "if you're not getting anything from it." But I do think that if you're not getting anything from a book one way or another, there's no intrinsic worth to continuing on grimly towards the end of the thing.

And yes, books are awesome. You just have to love books. Gosh, reading is great.
