200 pages of rich kids doing a ton of coke and being super boring + + pages of American Psycho. Don't know why I expected anything else.

A little repetitive at times but overall the themes were really good and it gives you a good idea what life was like in Los Angeles during the 80s

first 3/4 of the book: critique of the vapidity of LA/socal social culture, a bit dry in the way that windless, hot summer days are.
last 1/4 of the book: the most depraved shit you’ve ever read.
