/lit/ - Literature

Has anyone noticed that criticism towards wokrs of literature tends to be a lot more scrutinizing and vitriolic than other mediums?
If someone thinks a piece of art sucks, they recognize that they still probably couldn't draw it.
Even if a film is abject garbage, the production side of things requires an immense skillset to manage.
Music is entirely subjective to the listener, and even objective faults can add up to the experience.
You don't get ANY of these luxuries when you're dealing with literature critics. It wouldn't be such a big deal if they weren't expending swathes of energy writing paragraphs about how much this plot thread doesn't make sense to them, or regurgitating meme terms like "pacing" as if I give a fuck.

Yes. Do you have a fucking problem with that? Just read the book bro, you know it takes a long time to write and read and proofread and it's usually one man job but nooooo you gotta be a little bitch about it.
For the record I am less referring to my own works and more to these dense fucking whores you see on GoodReads who don't know what they're talking about.
