>They pick up a book and soon begin to tell you what is wrong with it. They are full of opinions which the book is merely a pretext for expressing. They can hardly be called "readers" at all. They are more like people you know who think a conversation is an occasion for talking but not listening. Not only are such people are not woth your effort in talking, but they are usually not worth listening either.
