How do I know if something is aesthetic and is there anything objective about it?

I'm speaking in terms of art, literature, architecture etc.

For example - say I tell someone I absolutely LOVE a piece of literature by Tolstoy and they tell me it sucks, or I think author X's prose is beautiful but someone else thinks otherwise. Are differences in what you think is aesthetic or of high quality entirely subjective? Similar scenarios apply for admiring architecture, like some classical building vs a postmodern piece of shit, and so on.

judge the last book you read without resorting to good-bad, beautiful-ugly, conscious-sublimated, realistic-ideologic, reactionary-progressive, stimulating-anaesthetic, authentic-inauthentic dichotomies.
