So it’s about this dude who enters the apartment of a weird old guy after he dies, and then becomes incredibly paranoid. The writing style can be very flowery and self-referential, but I’m excited to see what the hype is about.

Getting very good! Just watched h the first half of the movie trailer, but sadly it only had 500k views. However, it looked almost exactly how I had imagined. Very excited to see it someday.

Oh damn this story is so good so far! They just opened up the suitcase in Julius’ house and that’s when the young guy woke up in the freezer. Now at chapter 4, we’re cutting to a flashback.

I really am so excited to see what is inside the suitcase. I’d also really like to see the film of this.

I’ve pinned down the reason why I like this so quickly. It’s because the texture, color and font of the print is very nostalgic to me. It’s like a book that you only picked up in high school cause it was on the shelf in the English teachers room, and somehow the premise and comedy just draw you in and make you feel at home.

I had this book bookmarked but I don’t remember why exactly, but it was recent. I am taking a break from my Disturbing Books Challenge, but I’ll be back at it for the Fall.
I love this so far. The comedic writing style is exactly what I want. Dry, but still witty and descriptive.

The beginning of this book is so nerve racking , not because of the horror but because the idea of having to move houses with both a baby and a little kid sounds horrible. I’m glad this dude loves his kids, though.

I was so incredibly tempted to skip over the Huey Louis and the News section (it’s 6 full pages), but I’m so glad I stuck with it because the little twist it makes at the end of the chapter is so worth it. This book is excellent.

The sudden jump in this huge paragraph from the probably 60th description of what everyone is wearing to “Men Raped by Women” on the Patty Winter Show was the exact hypnosis that people said on Reddit caused them to be so shocked by the extreme violence.

This book is beyond excellent. I truly didn’t think there was a way to top the 2000 film but I was dead wrong. This book had shown me just how fascinating horror can really be. My favorite scenes are the ones that mix Bateman’s madness with the mundanity of the vapid people around him. I think the Shopping chapter is my favorite so far.

This book is even better than the film and I don’t mean that lightly. The chapter “Thursday Afternoon” is nothing short of excellent. I aspire to be able to write this well one day.

Very excited for this next part of the Disturbing Book Iceberg Challenge. For now, I am skipping over As I Lay Dying.

The seemingly final blog post was an absolute slog to get through. I wanted to skip it. That part made me want to give the book a 0/5. Once Merry met with Rachael again, my curiosity skyrocketed and I am now tempted to give this a 5/10 instead. I was not expecting the twist about their father, and that made it click for me. Why it seemed lame before. Wasn’t expecting a spaghetti sauce related Chevrok’s gun.

The descriptions of everyone’s clothing is starting to get grating, but I’m trying my best to skim it. The first murder has occurred with the homeless guy Al, and they weren’t kidding when they said the book was more explicit. I’m really excited for the scene with Luis Caruthers. They also had a quick pride parade scene.

The book was really starting to grow on me around 1/3rd of the way through, but oh my God, the “possession” dialogue is borderline insufferable. It’s trying so goddamn hard to be quirky or witty or spooky and it sounds like something from Wattpad. This story better have a kickass ending or it’s getting a 2/10.

This Stoney is starting to grow on me now that the perspective has changed. The possession angle with her crawling like a spider is really cheesy since I just watched the Exorcist literally 4 days ago.

I am not super into this main character, she talks way too much and is kinda try hard quirky. I’ll give her a chance though.

It’s very similar to the movie so far, but the characters names are sometimes different and there’s more detail. I am really enjoying it so far. 100 pages in is when is seems like it’s going to get crazy.

Chapter 22/44. U am starting to get a bit weary of the RPG style pacing. They met an Italian guy and never saw him again in one chapter. And now the main crew is just on a boat. It feels a little random, but I’m still invested.

I just got past the part where two demons and an Angel were fighting after they managed to escape the self harm cult. It made me think of EVA, especially the monstrous and surreal descriptions. Also, I think that Thomas and the priest might get together before the end.
