I was suprised to see this book with less than great reviews...I thought it was terrific! I couldn't put it down. Very shocking, but you have to expect that with Palahniuk going in.

Palahniuk's Invisible Monsters is hilarious, but in a twisted sort of way, making you cringe at times. Definitely worth the read, but not for the faint at heart.

You either love or hate Chuck. This is one of my more favorite Palahniuk books. It's a ridiculous crazy ride with shocks, twists, and turns. If you like him, you will most likely like this one.

Reminded me a bit of Bret Easton Ellis. But better.
It's about a young woman (a cut-rate model) who has half her face blown off by a gunshot. In the hospital, she meets a glamorously beautiful drag queen, and with another man, they set off on a road trip involving drugs, violence and crime...
Reading it, I kept vacillating between: "oh, this is just intentionally prurient, trashy stuff!" and "oh wait, it's really commenting on a lot more than that."
So I guess it's kind of a prurient trashy novel that does have a lot to say about body image and society and all that stuff.
It' also depends on a lot of things that the reader doesn't really see coming - which makes it hard to say a lot about it!

What a crazy ride on the Palahniuk express! A faceless (literally) model seeks an alternative life. Insanity ensues... There are some really funny, laugh-out-loud moments in this book that make it all worthwhile. Easily offended readers need not apply.

Well I finally had to just give up on this book. It was so slow and although it may have been my fault for not trying to get through it faster, I was totally lost through much of it. I kept picking it back up and trying again and I just totally lost patience.

I could not, for the life of me, get into this book... I've tried on multiple occasions to pick it up and start it over... but for some reason I've never gotten even half way.

This is my least favorite of all of the Palahniuk books I have read this far. The characters and the plot points seemed undeveloped. Like most of his work none of the characters have any redeeming qualities, which is up to you if that is something you like in a book or not. The only thing I did like about this book was that it was a quick read.
