Choke, by Chuck Palahniuk
I finished this book a while ago. It's honestly the best book I've ever read, to me personally.
I like how it's so different. . .how it really has no plot. How random it is. How quirky it is.
I just love it, and it's one of the funniest, best books I've ever read.
I really, really, really recommend it. Get it at the library, whatever. It's worth it.
I have some sites where they have excerpts of it. Check it out, please, and tell me what you think.
This guy's a fucking hilarious writer. I mean, God. He's so great.
Excerpt from a later chapter in the book. It's about Victor, and his job he has at a museum, acting like he's in the 1800's.
The first chapter of the book. It's not as good as the book as a whole, but it gives you a feel of what the book's like. Good stuff, good stuff, good stuff. Check it out.
If I were to write a novel, it'd be something like what he writes. All nihilistic and satirical and pessimistic.
I'm reading Invisible Monsters by him right now, very slowly since I don't have time. It's just as fucked up and great, too. Although, not as great as Choke.
