Chick Ink: 40 Stories of Tattoos--and the Women Who Wear Them
My illusions are ruined by this book. Forever.
 i was also slightly disapointed May 27, 2008
i was hoping to see some pics of ink to go with the stories. the stories are great, but with pics? would have been perfect. i'm in generous mood today, so i gave it 4 stars, when it should only get 3.
 Silly, Overanalyzed Nonsense March 20, 2008

I picked this up at the library and was unimpressed. The boring, overemotional and vapid stories in this book about why these women chose their tattoos were embarrassing to read. As I read, I thought that the sort of cloying, juvenile pseudo-significance these "chicks" attached to the ink they chose to have injected into their skin is why men often have a hard time taking women seriously and why Generation X appears to older folks as a bunch of idiots with too much disposable income.
There is one story in the book about one of these women--no doubt a caucasian--getting the Japanese letters for "transience" tattooed into her skin essentially because she had a degree in Japanese Studies and because she had some rudimentary grasp on the "cosmic" concept of impermanence. The ironic humor of the story is multi-layered and, I'm sure, completely lost on the writer.
Is anyone else tired of all these books where someone calls for "submissions" and then compiles them? This one is one of the worst I've read.

This is a very good book. If your intrested in knowning why your dog does some of the crazy things he does, this is the book for you to read. It's full of great answers to very intresting questions.
Hey patriarch does god tell you to judge? February 6, 2008

Patriarch you did not read the book so stop preaching to people. God does not judge by appearance and that does not give you the right to either. Look into your own miserable life to see why you are such a miserable rotton person.
