I'd unread it if I could do such thing. This book was traumatizing, it's disturbing on so many levels- if this was Mr. West's intention, well, good job, cause this book's a big nope for me. It's a violent and raw portrait of L.A. and its inhabitants, all consumed by their hunger for fame and success, money and... power? Sort of. But not in a good way. Like, that's too alienating and it was NOT a safe read for someone struggling with anxiety.
As for the content, I'll add a MAJOR TW cause in this book you'll find:
Racism? Check. Rape? Check. Graphic content? Check. Violence (verbal, too)? Check. No amount of trigger warnings would be enough to describe this book, I swear.
So yeah, if that's your thing, kudos for you, I guess. You do you, man. But it's still a BIG NOPE for me, sorry not sorry.

Good book has the same hasn’gatsby energy of long passages with little action throughout the book.
Quite a depressing book, but shows how false and fake Hollywood is.

Absolutely boring. Reminds me of white noise. Just a white dude talking about a girl and no plot.

the fact that scott fitzgerald recommended this should have been warning enough
