This book is the most hilarious thing I've read in ages.
>"Sure" I think about Courtney's legs, spread and wrapped around my face, and when I look over at Luis in one brief, flashing moment his head looks like a talking vagina and it scares the bejesus out of me, moves me to say something while mopping the sweat off my brow. "That's a nice...suit, Luis." The farthest thing from my mind.

Should I try re-reading this? I think I read the first chapter and thought the writing was awful.

Am I the only one who found it repetitive after a while? I dropped it halfway because it felt like I was just reading the same thing over and over

That's part of the point, I think. Their lives are meaningless, repetitive swamps of hedonism.
