I'm on chapter 3 of Snow Crash and am genuinely confused at how so many people can recommend it. The book either needs to change drastically or it's going to end up in the same category as RP1 for me.

Except maybe that RP1 outright stole crucial story aspects from Snow Crash.

... I'm hoping it gets better later on but the first two chapters in isolation are as bad or worst than RP1. I've come off reading a brilliant book too which is just throwing it into a painful contrast.

This for me too. It took me a couple of chapters to spot the satire in the tone. Also there's some cool stuff about consumerism as indoctrination when you get into the meat of the story. The characters aren't that relatable for sure, they're kind of just engines for the concepts.

Yeah, I'm about 100 pages in and it's definitely not as terrible as the first two chapters suggest.
