Did you even read what I said?

Subjective liking and disliking of literature is not the issue at hand here. Everyone is entitled to like or dislike things for whatever reason they want.

I don't like Maroon 5 because I think Adam Levine sounds like a cat in heat. That's not an objective criticism. They might be a well-receieved band with lots of fans but I just don't like it. I cannot sit there and say that Maroon5 is GOOD or BAD based on my personal LIKES and DISLIKES.

This person does not understand the difference. They seem to believe that their subjective experience while reading a book is the best determining factor of a book's objective merit.

Therefore her worldview is "if I don't like it, it must be bad."

That is a stupid view that leaves no room for objective interpretation.
