Reading it now, it's really quite boring
For all talk of how ""extreme"" it is, it's actually quite mild, there are some passages about how Jews band together and hurt countries, but there is nothing genocidal here, most of it is just Hitler's Personal story and then ramblings about how Social Democracies fail
"Germany Must Perish" is a far more extreme book, and much more openly genocidal in its langauge

Anyway, what are some other disappointing, or overrated books in your opinion?

Like reading the Mitt Romney book
Like all politician's books.

I was promised the quran to be a masterwork of poetic beauty and found no such thing in it

You have to read it in Arabic.
And appreciate Arabic poetry of course.

Arabic as a tongue lends itself to poetry in English, so a native English reader will find some poetic phrasing in their mother tongue but it won't come across as poetry. The one about the piercing star in the translation I like is a good example.

Or sura 111 which is a middle finger to a guy muhammad didn't like, and how his wife is going to suffer. That's kinda funny.
