And the fact some of these stories do ring true might be the most disturbing thing of all. While reading, I was alternately disgusted, horrified, and amused.

Palahniuk has already establuished himself as one of the greatest authors of our time, and now it feels as though he is showing off. This book is by far one of his best works.

It tells a frame story beautifully, although beautiful is not really the right word at all. Not only was it thought provoking, but it provoked a strong reaction in general, a trait that is losing strength in literature today. ...             Snuff97 reviews Chuck Palahniuk Doubleday, 2008 Not as good as his other books I hate to be mean to authors because they're giving it their best (or at least I hope so), but this book made me feel like Palahniuk is just writing because it's his job. It wasn't a gripping tale like Fight Club or even Diary, and it was only 180 pages so it's only entertaining for a day.
