If you read a lot of books, it’s absolutely one of the best interactive reading experiences ever made. If you’re not into reading and you don’t have a brain adapted to creating worlds from text you’re going to feel like only some kind snob likes it or it’s pretentious and people only like it for the politics or something.

Edit: the idea that so many of you are actually mad that other people had a great experience that you can’t share for whatever reason should be your tell that you are experiencing a form of cognitive dissonance that should be embraced and explored.
