    Anyone else get this? I'm a huge Bret Easton Ellis fan so i know i must be biased but i absolutely loved it! Brilliantly written, and the references to less than zero the book and movie were a nice touch.

    What did everyone else think?

    Just read it over the Xmas holidays, thought it was a lot better than some of his other stuff, definitely enjoyed it, though as usual with Ellis the ending frustrated me!

    I found this just as challenging as Glamorama but didn't really enjoy it as much. I would have liked if it was longer although I think I should really read it again before I cast my final judgement.

    Have the book, got half way through it a few months ago, but started reading other books/lack of time, so I will have to go back to it. I like most of his stuff Lunar Park possibly my favourite

    Did not like it at all, loved Less Than Zero, but this one was just frustrating. I read it last summer and can't remember it all that well but I remember wanting to throw it in the bin after finishing it.
    Spent 13 odd pound on it though so I let it live.
