They are perfectly welcome to be discerning in their own tastes, but when they insult other people for reading genre fiction (or whatever they disapprove of) or when they insult books they haven't read or entire categories of books...well...that just shows how narrow-minded they are.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974988315420539840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569628936701141350.post-82150808767640145992013-01-17T05:19:44.446-05:002013-01-17T05:19:44.446-05:00good idea! :)good idea! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10494336413354536873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569628936701141350.post-43579426362318661502013-01-16T17:04:09.241-05:002013-01-16T17:04:09.241-05:00When I come across people like this, I just say, &...When I come across people like this, I just say, "Okay, but it is okay that I like it, isn't it?

Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion on a book they read, but they shouldn't be snobs about it. Everyone comes from a different background with different life experiences to bring to the book they are reading, therefore some people will like them and some won't, as I'm sure you know since you were not a fan of this book snob. Sorry you had that encounter.<br /><br />Love your blog.
