I guess I'd rather have an unperfect novel/movie/whatever
with incredible moments than a "perfect" one which is
dreadfully soul-lessŠ

Indeed. On another list, we have Mary Higgins Clark as our
favourite target.
(And we chose a big oneŠ) On a music list, we like to pick on
Limp Bizkit
(Eminently pickable if you ask me !), and another band on
another list.
Though I don't like it when people dismiss stuff by young
writers, especially in writing.They are more vulnerable, and
hey, everybody has to start somewhere !
