I’ll go with the low-hanging fruit: Mein Kampf. I’ve read it, cover to cover. As a piece of propaganda, it’s good. As an example of good writing? Absolutely not (though I will admit I have only read it in translation). Oh, and the whole fascist, racist, and generally shitty worldview of the author that he infuses into the text. And the fact that the author is literally Hitler. You 5-star that book? You’re a Nazi. Period. And as a Jewish person, I don’t look too kindly on them.

    Haha, Yes dude. I could not stand either of those latter two books. Ready Player One could have been the fun nostalgia romp that people who like it say it is if it weren’t for the insufferable main character. And Midnight Library was not even that redeemable and still had an awful protagonist.
