Despite being recommended Malcolm Gladwell's books by good friends with whom I enjoy having deep conversation; I, for the life of me can't stand reading these books. Does anyone else feel this way?

I read this a while back and it resonates with my feeling as I read, but I still can't put my finger on what it is that I dislike: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/09/when-malco...
