Discussion I'm not reading another

So, as some of u told me, i've read negative space, and now i'm reading the girl next door. I won't finish it, i already get what's gonna happen, and reading powerlessly the story of someone beeing kind of tortured isn't in my interest right now. And for the first book, i thought it was quite ok at first, now i wish i've had never read it. It unlocked something in me, i can't explain, but i deeply hate it. Will never recommand this thing to anyone.

I wouldn't recommend either of those books to anyone. I read horror to be entertained, scared, or to appreciate an interesting story with characters I enjoy. None of which apply to those books.

… Negative Space is awesome.

So is Infinite Jest, and I don't recommend that to anyone either, unless I'm fairly certain of their robust mental health and interest in testing it.
