American Psycho är en roman av den amerikanske författaren Bret Easton Ellis. Boken utkom 1991 och blev en succé. Den mörka satiren skildrar konsumtionssamhällets bisarra bieffekter genom att blanda extremt detaljerade våldsskildringar med huvudpersonen Patrick Batemans väldiga fåfänga.
Filmrättigheterna till romanen köptes av 20th Century Fox och den filmatiserades år 2000 med Christian Bale i huvudrollen.

I couldn't put this book down until I had finished it. This is all that I can really say that is positive about the book, as the sections about violence were horribly disturbing, the sections about fashion incomprehensible, the sections about musical artists totally out of place, and the sections about the narrator's dating life as boring as they are to the narrator. ...but I couldn't put it down.
