This is *entirely* subjective. I hated "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" until I listened to it -- the narrator brought meaning and inflection to the text that I simply wasn't. Other people will feel differently than I in regard to that text, and their opinion is just as valid as mine because this is subjective.

Tl;dr: This is a very silly argument.
