Query: Ingriguing but at times confusing

Given the title, it started off as expected -- celebrity, fame, drugs -- and then suddenly terrorists are on the scene? I found myself confused. Maybe not so much confused as disappointed, as spy novels aren't my bag. Perhaps it's all metaphor, I thought. And what's with the film crews lurking in the background? Only twice did I read more than 20 pages at a sitting -- once at an airport and the last time was just to finish the darn thing. Which is also unfortunate, as I bought the book in Mexico and was looking forward to an intriguing read. It was a bit intriguing at times, sure. Ellis has a massive 6-plus-page sexual interlude about two-thirds of the way through, and then there's the celebrity stuff and some "cool" torture scenes. But mostly I found myself wondering: What's with this celebrity terrorist thing? Whatever.
