Oh no! When we all were younger, it amazes me some of the stuff we put up with. If I showed up to game at someone's house now and there was a situation like that, I'd probably never go back.
Different tastes, indeed! Part of its resonating with me was that I used to be in bands when I was younger (though certainly none as successful as the one in the book). Parts of the characters' experiences and feelings really hit me.
