Ellis kept me guessing until the end, for this long a novel it was surprisingly suspenseful. Personally I was a little frustrated by repetitive and idle dialogues and the amount of teenage drama, but it kept me listening in a fast pace nevertheless. What I really liked where the scary bits, like the parts about the Trawler, or the cassette tape the main character was sent, that was seriously eerie. I usually don't enjoy this genre of meta fiction meets true crime much, so I think I will definitely read other books by the author focusing on more horror.

Thank you so much Federico! I also haven't read American Psycho, I saw the movie and it was very good, a film with a message. This one my be a little lighter on the gore and terror.
