http://thefaultinourblogs.blogspot.comSo messed up. A commentary of physical beauty, the shallowness of modeling professions and culture, family, and consumerism. It was very hard to like the protagonist in this one, which was why it was difficult for me to read. In addition, Palahnuik's narrative a...

Up until the half way point of this book, I was wondering whether I should just abandon it. Invisible Monsters begins with a scene involving a shooting at a wedding and the rest of the book is devoted to telling you how we got there. The book jumps around in time constantly, a gleeful mess that refu...

Boy or Girl? Invisible or Visible? Monster and more Monster [Personal Review for Invisible Monsters] I read three Chuck Palahniuk books. My first Chuck experience was Fight Club and I am not disappointed with this book. It was like a new taste for me. Then I tried to read Survivor, I found it with t...

This just did not work for me. Maybe I'm not hip enough or cool enough to appreciate it, but it really got on my nerves. The narrator grated on me, the writing style just annoyed me, I was already sick of the moral/social commentary after the first chapter, and I was bored - not even frustrated, jus...

The thing I enjoy about Palahniuk's work in general is his disdain for telling a story along a linear time-line. This was a fine example of that. I sometimes had trouble following where we were in the story, but for the most part he made it clear pretty quickly.He is a master at twists - even if yo...

Once again, Palahniuk serves us a story we cannot ignore. How is it possible for someone to keep writing such good books? Even when I don't like what hes writing, I still like it. That's a lot, I figure, so much that this is what keeps Palahniuk in the top of the best writers of the new age. This is...

This book is weird but not in a particularly good way. I was really excited to read this book and I was a little dissappointed with it. The writing was confusing, how it kept jumping back and fourth. There also seemed to be little to no character development or depth.I felt like you were just hearin...
