Welcome to Litsy!

I am just glad it is done. This #noir of young people just callously sharing partners and staying drunk or high is not my cup of tea. I kept waiting for someone to die of an overdose or receive a deadly STD. I should not have read it two weeks before taking my little, sheltered girl to college for her freshman year.

This book is full, so far, of nameless and mindless sex and hard drugs. The reason I checked it out was because it fit New Hampshire and 1987. The two challenges I am trying to finish from LAST year.

Would this be considered a classic now?

I will finish this book. I will put down my phone and finish the book.

I should have reread A Separate Peace - at least I remember enjoying that one in highschool.

9-20-20: My 72nd finished book of 2020! I tried but I really didn‘t love this novel. The storyline and the characters were equally unlikeable. I normally enjoy Ellis‘s novels.....⭐️⭐️ #therulesofattraction #breteastonellis 👎🏼📖#️⃣7️⃣2️⃣

A fun read. Stylistically I loved the multiple viewpoints, and it all ties together nicely, with the random narrators providing a neat touch. Ellis is an original. He never fails to be daring.

I had never seen Raymond so keyed-up. He looked like he was going to cry and he gave this event (a Freshman suicide? oh, please) a dimension of unwarranted emotion.

New reading material in the mail 😊

When I think of #cocaine, I think of Bret Easton Ellis. #rockinmay

A little al fresco #reading this afternoon. Fresh air and a book reenergize me! #BrettEastonEllis #amreading

Surprisingly few #blackandwhitecovers on my shelf. #maybookflowers

Favorite book in the world #blewmymind #dealwithitrockandroll

I mean, unless you like the movie. And in some cases the movie is actually better #movies #judgeabookbyitsmovie
