Review title: The twisted creation of a no-talent hack.
Product review: This "book" was recommended to me by an apparently misguided friend. Through the first several pages, it held my interest, as the reader gets shadows of the evil behind the main character; it's a little bit suspenseful. However, after about 100 pages, I was bored out of my mind. It is monotonous to an amazing degree, and it is obvious that Ellis could not find a good way to express himself. The main character darts back and forth between night clubs, his apartment, and Wall Street, meeting seedy friends the whole time, and checking out women. It goes on and on for pages until the main character actually starts torturing people. If this book is a critique of the pursuit of money and 80's night life, then why the torture scenes? The author is trying to appeal to those of us who enjoy reading that sort of thing. Overall, the book is a lousy way of conveying an interesting message. I don't care if you are as rich as Patrick Bateman, AVOID THIS BOOK!
