Hey just wondering if anyone's a Chuck Palahniuk fan. He wrote Fightclub, which was obviously made into a movie.

If you enjoyed that movie, I'd recomend his other books.

Invisible Monsters and Choke, in particular.

I think Chuck is a genius.

Choke is a hilarious laugh out loud story.

I am looking forward to his newest book "Haunted" comeing out.

I applaud flare 21 on her excellent taste in books.

Big fan here, can't wait to read his new non fiction/fiction work.
If you like him you will also love Christopher Moore. I highly reccomend Lamb. Not quite as dark of a writer but still entertaining in his own right.

I'm currently reading Haunted....hahaha after being a waiting list for it at the Library. It's very different. No idea where he's taking it, but that's the beauty of it I suppose. I'll check out Christopher Moore. Thanks.

Man's as close to genius as you can get in mainstream fiction! I love it how they advertized FC as a "fight/action movie" and yet it has nothing to do with it.

^^^ Dude. If you did not go out and get in a fight with someone after reading Fight Club, you did not understand the book at all.

I just finished Haunted. It was pretty good; maybe not his best but still pretty good.

I saw him at a book signing at Indigo in Toronto. He read Guts which is definetley the best story in the book. He also mentioned that Haunted is going to be an HBO special and he just "optioned" Choke for a movie. So Survivor is his only fiction not yet being made into a movie!

He's got a book titled "Pygmy" due for release in May 2009. A storey about a 13 year old exchange student living in the USA with a science project that is aimed to kill millions and its target is Washington DC.
