Loved it. This is the first book I've read by Palahniuk, and I haven't even seen or read "Fight Club". Some say this is not his best work, but since I have nothing to compare it to, I quite enjoyed it. If it's not his best than I can't wait to read more by him. This book is definately not for the faint of heart. It does get quite gruesome at times, and I grew up reading horror and watching slasher flicks, so that's saying something.
Gruesome though it may be I didn't really find it a horror story, so if that's what you are looking for you may be disapointed. It was at many times funny, and the people's behavior is horrific almost all the time.
I also loved the set up. Short stories are a love of mine, so combined with a novel, it's a perfect blend. Quite different than anything I have ever read before.
