What the heck did I just read? The first chapter started out very promising, and I felt this was going to be a great book. When I came back to read chapter two, I actually went back to check that this was the same book where I read that first chapter. From there it just went downhill. Stories within stories, dream sequences that dragged on, so much of it felt like stream of consciousness from someone on some very strange drugs. There was a big section where I felt the author was using the book to make fun of certain people he encountered in the entertainment industry.

There were a few good parts here and there, but overall I didn't come away from the book with anything worthwhile. And by the way, I want to let people know that some may find this book excessively vulgar and offensive.
