Did not finish. Gave up about 40% through. The book was a chore. This style of writing is just not for me.

I was completely repulsed by this book. Maybe that was the idea... I don't care. I had to stop reading it. I didn't like it at all.

Disturbing, vile, fucked up, gross.... but still somehow great. I don't even know.

Well that was a journey! Palahniuk turns the most ordinary and average anecdotes into vile horror. Approach at your own risk.

was either so disturbed or so confused i could not follow this at all it made me feel so dumb i don’t know what to say 

Really liked this book, thought all the characters and stories were entertaining to read, albeit disturbing.
