Anonymous is back with the intoxicating, darkly dangerous, and wildly addictive sequel to his New York Times bestselling debut novel Diary of an Oxygen Thief.
Picking up the story where it left off, the controversial protagonist of cult classic Diary of an Oxygen Thief retools his advertising skills to seduce women online. It's a pursuit that quickly becomes a dangerous fixation, often requiring even more creativity and deception than his award-winning ad campaigns. Dazzling, daunting, and darkly hilarious, this spellbinding sequel is a spectacular indictment of a modern love twisted beyond recognition.
This title was previously published as Chameleon on a Kaleidoscope.

A worth reading book
In a world where anyone hardly ever picks a book here it is your chance do to it. "Chameleon in a candy store" ascends with grace from hell, as it's dark, heavy, rough.
With no empathy Anonymous shows us not only the cruel reality of online dating but also a sad truth about ourselves. What do we exactly look for when we scroll through the millions of people who'd like to chat with us? Company? Lust? Love? Attention. We want to prove that we're worth the attentions of everyone in the world. And when fulfilling our desires isn't enough anymore we want to become the object of other's desire.
That's why the author, frustrated cause he may have found the "one" but doesn't exactly know how to feel, decides to create a female alter ego on a dating site, who will help him to sell his books.
Cause after all, love is like selling products, and that's why between the pages of the author's adventures we'll find paragraphs about his advertisements ideas.
"Chameleon in a candy store" is one of that books that keeps you hooked up to the pages not only for the story itself but for the language used, which combines melancholy and sarcasm to guide us in a world where it gets harder and harder to breathe "clean air", cause after reading both of the author's book you'll understand that after all we are all just oxygen thieves.
