You should give me a review of Choke. I've read Survivor and it was pretty good, so I'm thinking of getting something else by Palahnuik.

Right now Steppenwolf - Hesse. Easily relatable. It's very good.

Finished Skin Deep. Next up, a re-read of Ghost World.

Ellroy's White Jazz once again after LAC, Big Nowhere & Dahlia (awaiting De Palma's version of the book).
Had forgotten how he had written the book, I mean : lack of verbs, or use of verbs at the imperative tense; riddance of most of what makes a sentence; use of punctuation to build the rhythm of the novel : - / everywhere.

yeah breakfast is damn good so far, i quite like god bless you mr rosewater though, that's my favorite of vonneguts.

you should read choke it was pretty good. it's basically about this crazed sex addict who pretends to choke to death in restaurants to pay his sick mother's medical bills. in a nutshell

!@#$%! · 08.01.2006, 08:04 PM

heee-- choke was hilarious. though the scam is quite funny in itself, the fuck scenes are the best. ("scenes"-- whatever). a very funny book. liked it better than lullaby. though i haven't read all of his books. they were on sale at the bookstore the other day, but i picked other stuff (job related mostly--).

hah yeah the sex scenes would jump at you from nowhere. but then again he is a sex addict
