Not for the faint hearted. Definetly had to skim through some parts to avoid either being very bored or very disgusted. What saves this book is the sly critiques at society through the main character and his interactions as well as the broken, hallucination-like writing flow that I believe somewhat accurately depicts the thought process and rolllercoaster craze of this “American psycho”.
