Frightening and unpleasant in a wonderful way, this book grabs you by the throat and holds you there until you are done reading. I think I could read this book five times and still be getting new things from it. All of the scenes are so vivid I feel like I could taste them. I think this book could definitely classify as a “underground classic.” It’s set up in a way that tells you only the important parts of the story, and because it does that, it never is close to boring. I had to actually use a summery guide to go over ever chapter after I read it to fully appreciate the book. That sounds like a bad thing, but really I was just so enthralled I needed to make sure I knew what was going on. I would highly recommend.

I didn't read Fight Club until several years after I had seen the movie, so unfortunately I went in knowing the plot. I would've enjoyed discovering the plot twists as I read. I've liked everything that I've read by Palahniuk so far--- they all leave you with something to think about long after you've finished reading them.
