Hurt people hurt people. Say there was a novel in which Holden Caulfield was an alcoholic and Lolita was a photographer's assistant and, somehow, they met in Bright Lights, Big City. He's blinded by love. She by ambition. Diary of an Oxygen Thief is an honest, hilarious, and heartrending novel, but above all, a very realistic account of what we do to each other and what we allow to have done to us.

They say the sea is actually black and that it merely reflects the blue sky above. So it was with me. I allowed youto admire yourself in my eyes. 

It was simply fine. Nothing too profound, but i will say the mystery around the author is intriguing and adds an element of enigma to the entirety of the story. Prose was interesting and intended to make the story “relatable” and personable, which it in fact is not. I guess the book will probably stay as a conundrum for me.

I like how this book had colloquial language so that made it relatively easy to read but it was a bit bizarre. I think the point was for us to dislike the main character because he had a messed up mind set and he ended up getting screwed over in the end so he remained anonymous but sort of had a happy ending.

If it didn't have the cover it has, I'd use this book as a coaster

The beginning was way better then the ending ! 

First words: “I liked hurting girls. Mentally, not physically, I never hit a girl in my life.”

Worst book I have read. No Plot. Written like a diary were there is no structure which was hard to follow. In total 3 chapters for 150 pages. Narcissistic main character

brizza!

I like the “diary” style of the book but the actual story itself is meh. I think the whole point is to kind of hate the mc, no wonder he stayed anonymous. Very real insight on the mind of a narcissist who complains a lot.

I expected this book to be bad, but never have I ever thought it would be THIS BAD. The main character has serious mental problems, no wonder the author is anonymous. The writing style is bad and so repetitive, waste of time.

In all seriousness I never knew a book would make me hate a person to this extent but for some reason I am also so captivated in this man’s life that I had to keep reading and reading to see how this walking pile of hatred’s life carried on.

This felt as though it was written for the shock factor. Writing through the lens of a immoral narrator can be interesting and inventive, but this felt like the imagination of a narcissistic man.

Honestly I don't even know where to start. No no hate to the words written on this book because I thought they were real and even though the person that wrote this had so much hatred within himself I feel like he was honest even if we didn't want to hear what people think. To be honest with you I feel like there's so many people that think this way men or female but there's so much hatred that we are In disbelief that someone can actually feel the weight this person felt. With that being said I thought this book was terrible and not the actual writing but the book itself. I felt this person what's a terrible person and hated people woman specifically so bad. He was very narcissistic and had a masochistic personality and that is something that I can't stand in men. I pushed through the bug because like any other person felt like there has to be a reason why he was the way he was which theorist but I feel like it's not enough reason to treat Woman the way he treated them. With that being said I push through the book it took me a while probably the longest it has ever been but I am proud that I push through it and I actually finish reading it.

Ps. The reason why I gave it three stars was because I just love the fact that the author was so honest and real and even though we hated seeing the words on page I felt like it was one of the truest most realist book ever.
