Choke by Chuck Palahniuk
4.25
dark emotional funny reflective sad tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

What a ride! Okay so first, the content was the extremely racy and shocking - even for a dirty-minded human like myself. Once I got past that and the incorrect grammar used throughout by the main characters … the book quickly picked up the pace. By the end, the thoughts of the characters, the seemingly disparate details, and the way things are written all come together beautifully to leave you with some very deep thoughts about life, love, and loss. For those who have seen Fight Club, the style that Chuck Palahniuk used here is very similar. I look forward to reading another book of his soon!
