Review title: Vanity Press or Vintage Press?
Product review: I am amazed that anyone other than the author,would spend the money to publish this book. The violence is not what is offensive, it is the utter lack of plot, and the silly use of meticulous detail in describing (plugging?) fashions worn by the characters. Delete the fashion references, restaurant reviews, and the completely unrelated whole chapters of music reviews and you have about 60 pages of novel, none of which lead to a climax or any resemblance of a story line. If this was an attempt to emulate Stephen King, it failed badly.
