Some people read for pleasure, and as such ignore parts they find boring, no matter how important they may be to the larger narrative. Don't be an elitist like "my way is the only way to read it". What a loving elitist to say that if I want to read a book I should actually read the book.

EtaBetaPi posted:He is reading the book. He just isn't reading it YOUR way. Even attempting to read DFW is a step up from not reading it at all, which is what you'd suggest because he isn't reading it the right way. No, that would be reading parts of the book. If you attempt to read Infinite Jest and think it's boring then maybe you should read something else that you don't think is boring instead of skipping huge parts of a book because that's dumb. However, since the person in question is only 80 pages in, it's way too early to decide that the book's boring anyway.
