The original novel as seen in Showtime's Californication, starring David Duchovny. The critically acclaimed show, Californication, is one of Showtime's highest rated programs. Averaging about two million viewers an episode, it is the most successfully rated freshman series in Showtime history. A Golden Globe nominee for Best Television Series (Comedy or Musical), Californication features an electric, likeable cast, led by actor David Duchovny, who won a Golden Globe for his performance playing Hank Moody. God Hates Us All is the novel written by Duchovny's character, Hank Moody, which in the show is turned into a Hollywood film entitled A Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Timed to coincide with the premiere of the Season 3 of the hit series, this will allow fans an extra, backstage look at the concept of the show not available through episodes.
Like most of the people who jumped out of their seats to purchase this book based on title alone, I am a huge fan of Californication. It read just as if it were written by Hank Moody. It was overall a great read and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who isn't a fan of the show!
A good, quick read

As a big fan of the show, Californication, I had to pick this up. I couldn't put it down from the second page. The book, although not the masterpiece it is in the show, is a really good read. If you like the writing of Californication you will absolutely love this book. This is a short novel that can be read in a day or so. I'm hoping that more Hank Moody books will be published in the future! It really is a good read, and you should check it out even if you don't watch the show.
A Crazy Little Thing

Debauchery, self-loathing and self-destruction, sex, drugs, and rock and roll are all well represented with various happy and not-so happy endings throughout. It's a quick and fun read that creates a nice reference for the Californication universe for fans. This novel wouldn't receive the same level of recognition in the real world as within the show, but it's not bad. I enjoyed it and would recomend it to non fans as well.
Nice read.

This book arrived this morning and I finished it before dinner. A great read all around. Interesting story with a solid flow. If you like Brett Easton Ellis, you will like this book. God Hates Us All seems like it was written by Ellis or someone who has read and enjoyed his work, but without the violence, rape, and other elements you may find in his work. I highly recommend this book. I am a huge fan of Californiacation and I believe this book could have been Hank Moody's vehicle to fame.
