Like some sort of crazy fucked up rollercoaster. It's melodramatic, vapid, and 'edgy,' but it was also really fun to read.
Written quite a bit like Fight Club, so that bugged me a little. But this was extremely unique and unexpected.
I've only read Fight Club, Damned, and Pygmy, and those books were okay to me, but this one I really liked. I never expected a Palahniuk to be heartwarming and aww-inducing.
I don't even know what to say about this book. I've owned it for YEARS because as a 14 year old going through her emo phase, I heard that Panic! at the Disco's song Time to Dance was based on this book so I bought it and then never read it. And maybe is should have stayed that way. I honestly feel like this book was almost a giant waste of time. It's one of those books you finish and just think to yourself 'what was the point?'. I really don't know what Chuck Palahniuk was trying to do with this. It was (purposely) choppy, which I hated because I couldn't follow even though I know it was intended to be that way. The characters were awful and everything shocking about this book I found to be quite offensive? There was a lot of talk of gay and transgender people which just didn't sit well with me, especially because a lot of it was used as shock factor to bring the nonsensical story together at the end.
While I didn't enjoy this almost at all, there was something so different about this that I think it'll stay with me for a long time, which is why this is a 2 star read and not a 1 star for me. The lesson learnt from this is that an emo phase is just that. An emo phase.

Jump to me having just read the most fucked up piece of literature ever.
Flash!
Is it brilliant? Hell Yes!
I really can't tell, in fact, I don't know if anyone can tell what cooks in Chuck's weirdly beautiful mind. The story feels like a harrowing gut-punching poem, that is one trainwreck after another after another after another.
Yes, there is a downside to this storytelling structure as it can get boring at times given no overarching plot, it jumps to events after events...
The punchline: If you're a fan of Chuck's electrifying writing style, jump right in. I can't get into more details without spoiling the fun, and also because its known...

Give me a complete late-stage revision of my adult life.Invisible Monsters is a catastrophic ride from page one to the very last, I mean literally from page one that only has about seventy words. It's a disjoint and fragmented story that doesn't always make sense, which makes me curious how the Remix edition feels, it's that good.

Give me anything in this whole fucking world that is exactly what it looks like!

All God does is watch us and kill us when we get boring. We must never, ever be boring.
I have just finished it so this review is going to be in no way coherent. I'm already feeling the oncoming book-hangover. It was just SO GOOD. It's my 5th Palahniuk novel and though I love them all, they were better and worse in their own category. I absolutely loved "Invisible Monsters". It's now my second favourite book of Palahniuk (first is still "Fight Club") and one of favourite books of all times. The plot twist about Brandy Alexander's identity left me with my mouth hanging open for several minutes and re-reading the same two pages for three times. I will definitely be re-reading the whole book soon and I can't recommend it enough.
