But others seem to like it a lot, so it's probably one of those books... (like McCarthy's The Road or Pynchon's Against the Day).

I'm just the opposite. I loved Wool (the first one). I have only a handful of books that I have marked as "5 stars" in Calibre, and Wool is one of them.
Now when it comes to "The Road", I didn't make it very far in that one. I don't I even made it out of the first chapter IIRC. I knew right off, "This isn't for me".
It's funny how we are all so different in what we like. But that's a good thing - we have so many choices available to us because of this.
