I'm a little under halfway through and bored as hell. Is it worth pushing through it? I could live with the meh story if the prose was better, but it's seriously dry.

This book is boring. I dropped it somewhere after marriage. It's just one big biography of some retard with a muh smart message about flowing with water. It's retarded this book is always in top 10 literature works above actual beautiful classics.
I feel like Stoner is just a meme we all fall into, then we realise it's shit and push others to read for the lulz.

Drop it, then. No shame in abandoning a book mid way because you are not enjoying it. Dont waste your time, do things you enjoy.

Yes. When you eat something that tastes objectively like shit, it's shit. You can't just eat shit and say, "well, in my subjective opinion this cuisine is not the best for my tongue; although some cultures probably eat shit and think this is a phenomenal, nutritious meal, thus I cannot say they lack taste or that shit is bad because cuisine is indeed subjective"
