American Physco is a very unique/funny/freaky read..I remember buying it
wrapped in plastic like hardcore porn, with "R" rating plastered all over it.

I signed up for some e-mail thingy back when the book first came out, I was sent tons of e-mails by "Patrick Bateman" that kind of tie in with the story. If anyone wants the .txt I created, PM me.

Edit-> When the movie came out, not book. I think the book was released in 1990.
