American Psycho is YA fiction, legit. I read it when I was 18 and it's on the same par as Fight Club.

I don't know what "is Young Adult fiction, legit" means, but I'm reading Rules of Attraction right now and its not very good. Ellis was so self-indulgently insistent on writing overwrought half-page sentences that he made all his characters sound and feel the same.

While I get that all the characters are essentially the same in so far as they're aimless souls whose searches for affection have been misled by college hedonism, their identical sounding internal monologues feel less like a stylistic choice than a flat out lack of talent on the part of Ellis.
BEE is overrated.
That been said, American Psycho is a hell of a good book, far above his other ones imo. He went real deep on this one.

Thanks for clarifying, friend.
I'd hesitant grouping it with such titles as "Looking for Alaska"
