Ridiculous take. She is excellent at writing books (plotting, characters, story development), which explains her popularity, despite how kooky her philosophy is.
So I have now read the Big Three Ayn Rand Books, atlas shrugged, the fountainhead, and anthem. And I have this to say: she’s bad at writing books, so bad, in fact, that I find her popularity genuinely strange

My wife is at school camp. She won't be enjoying the bad food, pouring rain, freezing cold, missing new Survivor and stuck in a tent without her beloved Paddy. I should add my wife is a teacher.

Adolescence comprises one excellence episode, one good episode, one poor episode and one dreadful episode, all shot using an unneccesary gimmick. In a world of gourmet cheeseburgers it is a sausage mcmuffin.
