The survivor of a religious cult tells his life story to the “black box” of a hijacked airplane bound straight for hell (or maybe Arizona). Told only as Chuck Palahniuk can. This story is extremely twisted and somehow retains its brilliance throughout. There I so much going on and so many turns in t...

This was my first Palahniuk book, and it sure won't be the last. Really good writing, exquisite and fine, but brutal and unforgiving, it portrays a human being in its worst times, with its worst thoughts. It's half exciting and half maddening.

Actually 4.5 stars for pure enjoyment. Loved this book, my introduction to Palahniuk, and will now be actively seeking out his other works.

Now that I'm done with this book, I'm still on the fence about it. I didn't hate it but I wasn't like OMFG this is the bestest book I've ever read! Nope. I thought it was inventive and I liked how the book started at the end and came full circle at the beginning. There were moments where I was l...

This book is pretty disturbing. One redeeming quality is all of the cleaning tips you learn - seriously.
