A review by dzengota
Serotonin by Michel Houellebecq

3.0

Considering its subject matter it feels weird to call Serotonin a fun read, but it was. It is a 300 page dive into the depressive years of a failed-everything misogynist, ending up with implied end of suicide. It is that but it is done with such an aloof and snarky tone which keeps the story moving and readable. I imagine a book of this subject matter with a slow and depressive tone would become basically unreadably sad.
