I'm a huge sci Fi and fantasy fan. I've seen a lot of online chatter about how unserious the Hugos have gotten recently and decided to check out some past Hugo winners for comparison.

and wow....this is objectively not a good book. The writing style is all over the place. There's typos and bad grammar. Nothing is really explained. The characters aren't developed at all. At no point was I given a reason to care about any of the characters or what was happening. I gave it 1 star because it at least kept my attention enough to finish. But I'm not sure why this is such a beloved classic
