Thanks Rob--but save your money!
25 Jan 2010
Format:Paperback
Gaah! Do NOT spend your money on this book just because Rob Pattinson recommends it!
Synopsis: crazy guy on train has some thoughts, snatches some women, marries a prostitute who is also crazy, they both murder some people while thinking about sex, or maybe they don't really murder them, then the guy is in an insane asylum, still thinking some heavy thoughts, and maybe goes home and hugs his wife who maybe has two dead bodies in the cupboard, and maybe the guy has killed off his imaginary friend, or not.
There was an interesting thought where the guy asks the girl where she went to school, which in England is apparently a way to discover your class-standing (poor or rich) and he thinks: we spend too much time thinking of how we ARE instead of what we do.
That's it. Please do not waste your hard-earned 40 bucks on this book.

This book was very good. I couldn't put it down. You have to really follow it, a few times I had to go back and read a chapter again. I like movies and books that make you think and keep you wondering. I think there could be different interpretations to the ending.
