The only emotions this book made me feel were irritation at the main character, for a multitude of reasons, and nauseated from the second hand embarrassment at his humiliation. How could someone accomplish what I’d been trying to achieve for years, publish. Salinger in style, I half snickered in disbelief, and half sneered in jealousy. When I read the back of the book where Anonymous was compared to J.D. It had a desperate "feel bad for me, feel bad for me" hope for pity the entire time, and it just made the author look continuously more stupid. The day I saw Diary of an Oxygen thief in the store, I stumbled upon something I didn’t know I needed. But even then, this was such a self-pitying book that I could barely take anything the author was saying seriously. I suppose the only "message" that was even remotely meaningful was about how men AND women just use each other to move up in life in different ways. It was nowhere near an insightful read, honestly.

Even when he was sober and "better" he still constantly objectified women. Bro referred to women as FEMALES several times. ![]() There was pretty much nothing concrete or even likeable about his personality, and almost nothing relatable about him either. She by ambition DIARY OF AN OXYGEN THIEF is honest hilarious and heartrending but above all a very real account of what we do to each other and what we allow to have done to us. Sometimes the main character didn't seem to realize that he was the problem, yet other times he knew he was. I was hoping for character development and found close to none. My first impression was that it was about a misogynist, and was stupid to the point where I wanted to put it down, but I didn't solely for the purpose of seeing how much worse it could get. If I had to describe this book in one sentence it would be: Sociopathic incel who enjoys hurting women because daddy didn't love him finally meets his match and gets his heart broken.
