The best Chuck P book I've read so far, it was better than Fight Club and Choke.

This one was actually about something, and there were a lot of twists and turns, some predictable, but some surprises.

I definetly recommend it, A-.

It's not a bad book, personally it's one of my least favorite books by him.
The ending is a bit of a suprise though..

Personally my favorite by Palahniuk is survivor.. great great book.
they should make a movie of it. (although they never will...)

Having read only Invisible Monsters and Survivor, I liked IM more, though Survivor was still great. Anyway, I agree.

Xsas · 05-17-2004, 08:28 AM

I'm gunna read Survivor next.

Yeah IM has my vote for the best book by Chuck. I've heard some rumor that IM was his first novel. Is this true?

Asuka{eve} · 05-17-2004, 10:07 AM

I just read Invisible Monsters I didnt understand everything that was going on though.

Sorry, I have never heard of the book or the author. Can you tell me more about it- genre, style, plots?

Xsas · 05-17-2004, 11:17 AM

Basically, this book is about this super hot model who got in a car wreck and now her face is ruined. Everyone pays no attention to her now, hence she's "invisible."

It is my favorite of his novels, and in one of the editions of the book in the forward, he mentions about how it is indeed his first book.

I thought this book was okay but the way it ended seemed like a bit of a copout, the way the twist was revealed was boring.

Survivor is his best book by far.

IM is great especially funny is the main character's "boyfriend". Chuck is great i really can't choose a favorite.

kl0pper · 05-18-2004, 02:35 AM

anything chuck has written except fight club and survivor (to a lesser extent) is trash "counterculture" pop-fiction
