Asimov’s writing can be off-putting in his own right. I would describe his writing as dry and factual, very little space for emotions, introspection and even action, while most scenes are almost screen plays. A lot is conveyed in very little words, a lot left to the imagination. They are all qualities I personally love and that make his books stand out, but some if not most readers find it too flat to relate to.
