I already apologized for making a big deal out of it. I do understand that
debates and opinions about books aren't trivial matters. And I repeat,
anyone or anything that inspires one to pick up a book and read is OK with
me. Fluff or not, the book was funny and entertaining in my opinion. But
then again, we're not having this discussion, since I'm unlikely to
contribute anything significant that would make the discussion worthwhile.
