I have read an author for years, and really enjoyed their
books and ideas. But then, I picked up one of the newer
books of theirs, and it just wasn't the same.
Did I outgrow them, or did they lose something over time?
With a few, they have written a lot, maybe they ran
out of things to say? Some feel like they are writing
because they can't stop and they sell, but it feels like
they don't care much anymore, the humour and zing
of characterization is gone.
Stephen King and Sue Grafton are a couple that I
just can't read anymore. They feel flat, as though they
aren't there; the books are either boring or gross
to me.
So, is it me who changed, or them?
