For the bachelor, the house/appartment is fine, for the family it's bad.
Same goes for books. As long as it can be read without problems (on an e-reader, or as a paperback), then it is up to the reader to decide if the content is bad or not.

In a book, aren't grammar, spelling, and punctuation akin to the "structural integrity, strength of support walls, etc." of a house? These are basics that can be objectively judged, not matters of the consumer's personal preference or whim.
