Patrick Bateman is twenty-six and he works on Wall Street, he is handsome, sophisticated, charming and intelligent. He is also a psychopath. Taking us to head-on collision with America’s greatest dream—and its worst nightmare—American Psycho is bleak, bitter, black comedy about a world we all recognise but do not wish to confront

I need to confess that this book might be the greatest thriller book ever written. 

This book is very dark and perhaps controversial to some people. But it is also very interesting, enjoyable and a page turner. 

Patrick Bateman is an amazing main character, due to his delusions and the complexity of his character. But he also represents in a way what a lot of people became in modern times which more or less are slaves to materialism. But having a psychopath as a main character is really satisfying.

The plot here is wow. It’s very unique, engaging, interesting and it keeps you interested from the first page to the last. The plot gets very dark at times, and the fact that we can’t distinct if its reality of just delusions to Patrick Bateman keeps you question a lot but in a very interesting way.

The writing style here is incredible, it felt like the author knew exactly what words to use to get you engaged in the plot and keep you reading this book until the end. The writing style in this book is brutal at times due to the way some moments are described which makes it even better and interesting.

This book is very violent and brutal at times but I suppose that’s what you get from a book where the main character is a psychopath who puts the perfect smile in-front of everyone. And it will for sure stick with you for a long time after finishing it.

In this book we also get a lot of essays of shorts from the main character about the 80s music, movies and famous brands.

Patrick Bateman is a psychopath and this book is from his point of view but he only shows us in this book what he wants to show us. Which makes his point of view very unreliable. And in this book the unreliable narrator is the best thing which could happen to this book. Because it makes you question if it really happened or not. 

I Give This Book 3 / 5
