3.5

Very 90s, cocaine fueled dark satire of the incel psyche. Like Fight Club, this novel has been inappropriately claimed by the men it criticizes. Hard to say it was a pleasure to read, but there were moments I found myself laughing. Much more violent than the movie and also all the bad guys are obsessed with Donald Trump
