5.0 out of 5 stars crazy truth crazy amazing stream of consciousness, August 3, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Attic (Paperback)
Very necessary for any Geek Lover. It's like an autobiography, with the most awesome strange plot lines twisted right in. Highly sexual, disturbing, intense. And it's all stream of consciousness, and it is so good. I personally like it a whole lot more than I like Truck, and it clearly belongs to a different genre than Geek. It's intense. In honor of my great aunt Eva, I give it three enthusiastic thumbs up.

2.0 out of 5 stars Pointless, Disjointed, But With Interesting Sentences, June 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Attic (Paperback)
Geek Love is one of my favorite books ever, but this novel seemed like a Kerouac-style ramble without a plot, compelling characterization, beginning or ending. Underwater misery with no subtlety or explanation.

4.0 out of 5 stars "attic" will lead you to insanity, November 7, 2000
By 
Megan Dorrah (Eugene, Oregon USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Attic (Paperback)
Being a big fan of Geek Love, I was happy to find Attic. I wasn't sure what to expect, and what I found was a mess of prose. You are inside the mind of a crazy woman who finds herself in strange places and situations. You are given a first hand view of her thought process -- run-on sentences, vivid imagery, and confusion. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. After reading this book, I felt insane myself. Not recommended for the mentally unstable.
