Do I want to be traumatized? Of course I do 😂
0:26 the blind guy: aw Crap
The Sluts was my first Dennis Cooper. I love it so much that I am slowly reading his bibliography.
I JUST FINISHED THIS BOOK!!!!!! Its been on my tbr for many months and sitting on my shelf taunting me but I finally decided to give it a try and I finished it in two days.... This fucking book was phenomenal. It was depraved and vile and yet thrilling and mysterious and UNIQUE! I've never read anything like it and I loved every fucking page. 10/10
Yesssss I knew when I saw that blurry thumbnail what book it was. I've wanted to read this for so long. Being traumatized? Yes please.
Love Dennis Cooper. His George Miles Cycle (Closer, Frisk, Try, Guide, Period) is also extreme like this one. Poppy Brite's "Exquisite Corpse" was somewhat of an homage to "Frisk."
This book has been on my tbr for years! Guess this is my sign to pick it up
Trauma? SAY LESS
This book has been on my tbr for a good while now, really need to make the time to check it out. Also, loving the new cut Anda, suits you!
I love your recommendations so much!
Guess I’m adding another to the MUST READ list :)
I LOVE THIS CHANNELLLL
I love those style of books (epistolary) because they keep me more engaged. I might have to check this one out!
Read this on a camping trip. Was absolutely fascinating and the format was super cool. Dennis Cooper is probably one of my favorite authors(?). Still unsure, read Closer and Frisk as well which are definitely something else.
Nice to see this book getting recommended. It is really a good book.
this book is way ahead of its time
what a coincidence that this video ends up on my recommended, i randomly picked up this book in a store on w sunset blvd and finished it a few weeks ago. I finished it in one night. i would have been reading through my fingers if i could have !
hey I recently read this too! a lot of my post-read research for this book mentioned that a lot of the underlying fear and confusion in some characters' actions was related to the fear circulating around AIDS at that time
I read this book a couple months ago. Definitely one of the most interesting books i have ever real and a mind fuck. I personally LOVED the format, felt Very real for the time period it takes place, which made it more disturbing to me
Read it in January. It was a wild and somehow grotesque piece. Loved it, will definitely even reread it (for Nic Carter's group, mostly lol)
Hello Anda! Wanted to say thank you because I just finished reading From Below by Darcy Coats and it has become one of my favorite books! Am so glad I found your channel!❤
I'm so glad you liked it! I still think about that book a year or two after reading it. I'm glad to have you here!
I have this book on my list to read! 😂Great video.
Excellent explanation of internet trolling and the echo chamber.
Well. Let's TBR😂
I haven't had the guts to read it. I learned about it a long time ago.❤
My favorite Dennis Cooper book!
I loved this book so much omg
Loved your tshirt🎃
Neat, will check it out.
Hi Anda, I really enjoy your videos.
This review made me think that you would really appreciated ‘We Had to Remove This,’ by Hanna Bervoets. Not because the books seem similar, but because of some of the things you say about the kind of writing that appeals to you. It’s really short and I loved it a lot - check it out if you get the chance.
I have been meaning to read Cooper for ages since he is one of the favorite writers of Jamie Stewart from the band Xiu Xiu. I have Cooper’s debut, Closer, which I’m planning to read this summer.
I like review of a single book much more than just the lists with no depth.
I love Cooper's works so much. I think this book was my favorite.
very interested to read this!! i wish it was on audible 😢
Sure, I'll be happy to read something fucked up! 🤠
I read it several days ago, a very disturbing book but in an Interesting way.
Starting reading this book on Amazon at work and then quickly felt like I'd better stop because it would be hard to defend
Omg I commented on a video of yours yesterday asking if you were going to review more Dennis cooper 😂 so glad you posted this! The Sluts is amazing. I would also recommend Frisk and Try, books 2 and 3 in the George Miles cycle. Try is my favorite of the two :3
I saw the comment after I filmed this one. You have good timing 😂 I'll definitely read more of the George Miles series.
If you want a much more non-traumatising book to read that's told through declassified documents and emails, I would recommend The Illuminae by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff. It's a YA novel, first in a trilogy, but I found both the story and form really enjoyable. But more Dennis Cooper sounds good too.
It would be nice if you could make a video with book recommendations that have unreliable narrators! I love those too, but unfortunately I don't know many books like that.
There's tons of books with unreliable narrators! Almost every psychological thriller have one!
I recommend The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro, although that's more like he's obviously biased and the plot lays a smackdown on him for it.
God, Jr. by Dennis Cooper does not have as much violence or sex as any of Cooper's other books. (Cooper is the king of unreliable narration).
If you want something heftier and heavier, in which the unreliableness slowly slowly slowly creeps in-The Secret History by Donna Tartt. Moe Black here on CZcams had a lot of good videos about it.
Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov or his more popular and controversial book Lolita...
Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. The twist in that one is legendary, and I definitely think the movie ruined the book's message by changing the ending.
Mysterious Skin by Scott Heim but like Lolita it has rather graphic depictions of child abuse, unlike Lolita it's all told from the point of view of the victim.
Curtain by Agatha Christie but the narrator is more straightforwardly mistaken, than he is unreliable.
@@poe.and.theholograms Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll check them out.
4:36 Did you ever hear about the Armin Meiwes (pronounced "my-viss") case in Germany? Real life horror and a good example of how, no matter how extreme your sickness, you will probably find someone to share it with online.
Just read the wiki. Thanks for sharing, I think haha.
While we're in Germany, have you seen the movie "The Golden Glove"?
@@baker126 Not heard of that one. Maybe give it a go sometime.
I'm not sure what my limit is with these kind of books but I'm gonna keep pushing it until I hit traumatized 😂
I think what we can take away from the last 100 books is, they are interesting! :D - Will you do an extreme horror video in the near future? They are so funny :D
😂😂😂😂😂😂 one day I'll learn a new word. I'm hoping to film one this week or next.
Best wishes all.
Kinda want to read this but also dreading having to explain "Hey why do you have a book called THE SLUTS on your desk"
I would like to get this book - where did u find it?
Check out Exquisite Corpse please!
Ah I love ‘The Sluts'! When my friend lent it to me I devoured it in a single night-so incredibly entrancing/obsessive/engrossing. The way that the online characters become obsessed, lie, get confused, reorient themselves, reconstruct the story parallels the audiences own reception. The obsessive quality is not be understated-I felt truly truly obsessed by who 'Brad' was, and ultimately, who he is doesn't really matter (!) to us. We get 'The Sluts' anyway.
Yep, this is going on my list 🤓
What is the book behind her with the black leather cover that looks like white eyes and stitches?
Love your videos! A great bananas thriller that I never see talked about is Mind of Winter by Laura Kasischke; I think you’d enjoy it!
Starts at 9;00.
I literally just finished it yesterday but I’m so lost with the ending ? Is it one of those that leaves you thinking if anything was real?
Have you read House of Leaves before? If not, I think you should, I would love to hears your thoughts about it lol
Hi, Anda. Love your content and I’ve been watching it for a while now. I just finished reading The Marbled Swarm by Dennis Cooper and it’s extremely unsettling, disturbing, hard to read but also quite an interesting ride. I would love for you to check it out and give us your thoughts about it!
I hate it when authors put emails, text messages or social media posts in a novel. 🤦🏼
Why? It’s just another facet of the world. It’s like when authors included letters in older books.
Have you heard of this term? As quite a few of your reads have been in this form recently? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epistolary_novel
