What a deeply disturbing and fantastic book.
Have was such an unhinged character but I somehow rooted for her and was utterly devastated by the ending.
There was a humorous yet strange scene that was definitely an ode to Patrick Batemen watching himself having sex.
This was such a captivating story. It was like a train wreck - I just couldn't look away. Every time I put the book down, it was all I could think about.
It had me physically cringing in disgust and shouting out in disturbance and I loved every moment of it.
This is going to stick with me for a very long time.
