...even though I haven't read a single one.
DS (7) brings endless Beast Quest/Sea Quest books home from school. Based on the cover designs, I assumed they would all be shit (no pre-judging here :)) so I did read two random pages on one just to clarify, and it appeared to be utter bilge.
I have FINALLY got him to admit that he doesn't enjoy them that much, but he feels obliged to read them because all the other boys choose them - which would be ok, if broken up by things he does like (David Walliams / Michael Morpurgo etc) but it's just endless Quest after flipping Quest and there are millions of the fuckers.
I hate them. I can't bring myself to read them with him and just the sight of the stupid covers makes me feel a bit ragey on the basis that they are too brightly coloured and I hate anything 'fantasy'.
AIBU to insist he stops choosing them?
