I would take the opinion of your friend over those of anonymous shitlords on 4chan.

OP here. At first, I thought the exact same thing. Yet, I d'like to try.

Read it when it came out, I remember it was enjoyable.

Read it, dude. It's not the most like super high-brow lit thing, but it's a really good read. Don't be a slave to /lit/. And besides, worst case scenario, you'll have a book to discuss with ya pal.

This book gave me my first full erection

Here's my story with this book:

> Met a solid 8/10
> End up liking each other
> "Anon, you like books, don't you? Do you know Ruiz Carlos Zafon?"
> Proceeds to tell me it's one of the best living authors, lends me The Shadow of The Wind
> Start reading it
> Hated every word of it, boring as fuck
> Force myself through it because of the girl
> "Did you like it, anon?"
> "Y-yes, sure. Good stuff."
> It worked, I get the girl, things are good.


> Two months passes, things are not good
> She turns out to be a fucking asshole
> Lied to me all the time
> Kept trying to manipulate me
> I regretted thinking with my dick, proceed to break up with her

Have you ever truly hated a book, OP? I do, it is this one.
