Rooney is purely a manufactured celebrity. She is being marketed with some serious capital and that's the reason why she is popular. It doesn't matter whether she's good or not (she isn't), she's getting millions of normie readers anyway simply because she's the most advertised writer ever.

So even though you know you hate her books, you continue to read them? Even her most recent one? I find that incredibly hard to believe, unless you’re wilfully masochistic and/or retarded.

If by “Bieber equivalent” you mean one-of-a-kind entertainer with enough teen sex appeal to make young girls cream in their seats like they did for The Beatles, then no, it’s not a very apt comparison. Whatever you think of him, Bieber is genuinely talented and the amount of listeners he gets cannot be attributed to his publicist alone. There has to be something substantial there in the first place worth marketing.

His criticism was “it’s shit” which isn’t valid criticism at all, he didn’t bother to elaborate on why her books were bad whatsoever. That’s not criticism, that’s just, like, his opinion, man.

But yes- if he hated her after reading 3 of her books then he is absolutely a bad reader who needs to subject himself to 3 trash novels where one would do. Why are you defending his retardation?

She is fine. Rooney isn't half bad when she is just doing relationship drama and people having sex. The problem is when Rooney tries to get political, to give social commentary, to "say something". Her latest novel had chapters that were just emails between the two protagonists where they talk about "the real world and shit". It was very transparent that these chapters were there just as a vehicle so that Rooney could share her not-at-all unique views on the world.
Regarding your question, Rooney very clearly is ripping off Salinger's style, so maybe this bitch you're after could be into Salinger and other stuff.

How do you know? He hasn’t said anything to demonstrate that he’s read them, all he did was say they were shit. Do you automatically believe everything you read on the internet? Or is the more likely option that no one on /lit/ actually reads?

I just finished "Beautiful World.." and it sucked ass. At least it was a quick read, but god, what a load of insufferable characters. Sally Rooney thinks she's so deep talking about capitalism like she's the first person ever to find flaws in it. So adolescent it's ridiculous. The sex scenes were awful as well. Characters started having complex dialogues and full on therapy sessions whilst one of them had their dick in the other's pussy. Truly amateurish stuff.
