> knew I’d get downvotes because Ayn Rand on HN = downvotes.

There are comments on this very thread that recommend Atlas Shrugged that haven't been downvoted. The best way to get downvoted on HN is to complain about being downvoted.

> I’d say if a novel elicits so much consistent response it’s already worth reading.

That is a bizzare take. I'm pretty sure Mein Kapf would elicit a more consistently negative response.

> Were taking opinions here btw, keep that mind.

The people downvoting you are also expressing their opinion.




Ah, didn’t realize we downvote opinions we don’t agree with here, I was always voting based on how constructive a post was.
