Been reading Gone Girl, which is really good writing, and Chuck Palahniuk’s Beautiful You, which is… Chuck Palahniuk writing, but damn is it an interesting combo on the tragicomedy of modern men and women trying to figure out what they should expect of and offer to each other. When I’m done they’d be a good pairing for a review essay.

UGH, I even read Gillian Flynn’s other books for it, but now that the 50 Shades of Grey movie is coming out I’m hearing plot synopses and realizing that Beautiful You was in part a detournement of it. Which means that to deliver this review properly I am going to have to fucking read fucking 50 Shades of fucking Grey.
