3.5
But then when it started going to the actual murders themself that started to feel a bit dull (though no less disgusting). I know this is supposed to add to the narrator again as he's bored so the killings become more intense to try and interest him again but it felt like too much shock factor and not actually that disturbing. (Honestly with this whole ordeal I feel like I've read better ways this was done).
I probably will not reread this anytime soon. But I'm still glad I read it.
All I know now is defiantly going to avoid men who say they relate to Bateman with an even wider breadth then before
