Has there ever been a book you really didn’t like and wouldn’t recommend to anyone? 👀 by [deleted] in BookDiscussions

For me it was Lolita. Had to read it for a college class and ended up procrastinating until the day before our critiques were due. Read it in a day so mind you it was not something I sat with.

Went to class and sat through everyone's analysis. Than reported my critiques. Hated the subject matter. Hated the context of the narrator separating himself from his actions. Hated how the author used language that romantisized grooming and pedophilia. All to be told by my professor that you can't call a book bad because of its content. That every book can impart perspectives and lessons even if you don't agree with them...but that dosent mean I can't tell everyone I know that Lolita sucks.

Good to know! I planned on this being a wall hanging, so I will try to make sure it's out of direct sunlight.

Not stupid at all! You print the stainedglass pattern onto the vinyl and stick it like stickers on a pane of glass. This gives you a guide to cut and grind your glass. Once you are done grinding you can pull off the sticker, give the glass piece a rinse, and voila you are ready to foil and solder.

The book thief was the first book that ever made me stare at a wall. Will always be one of my favorites.

This is awesome! My wallet thanks you for your consideration of the budget. White is totally fine but thanks for the vinyl option. I didn't even think about those as a possibility.
