One time I heard an english grad student at my university say "Ernest Cline is so good." Have you experienced this anywhete else, /lit/? To be fair I've never read any of Ernest Cline's work fully, but I can't picture myself saying the same.

Not Ernest Cline, but other trash authors (JK Rowling, Mira Gonzalez, etc.). Some English grad students are the type to enjoy nothing more than Ulysses, and some are just skilled and really passionate about set topics but otherwise have their own trashy tastes for personal reading. Nothing wrong with that, so long as they don't lead their students astray. Pic related, the books DFW assigned his students, but he sold them as what they are.
