    This is basically the “everybody secretly likes pop music” reverse snobbery angle. It’s so difficult to imagine that other people have different tastes from you.

      it’s not saying everybody likes kids books. it’s just saying you shouldn’t shame people who do.

    I recently read Ursula K. Le Guin’s Earthsea books, really interesting in that first half are kids lit and the second half were written 30 years later for a grown audience.

    Best of both worlds! Though I did find the kids books way more fun.

    You are reading the wrong adult books if that is your take away from it.

    Sounds like someone is shaming people who like adult books, rather.

          how about you improve your reading comprehension skills instead?

                  i mean i get it; to an illiterate, anyone with basic reading comprehension would look like a nerd.

      No, it’s just saying adult books have heavy topics sometimes

      If I say i think apples suck im not necessarily shaming people that eat apples

        The “you tell me who’s winning” pretty much shows that that’s what they’re doing though…
