I just finished Invisible Monsters that was loaned to me by a friend. I must say, I'm in love. I read it cover to cover in one sitting (I can't remember the last time I did that) I think it's safe to say I'll be on a chuck spree.

Survivor, next! That's my recommendation. I hope you have a day off when you start reading it. Wink

Invisible Monsters is my favorite. I could certainly read it more than once and I don't often do that. I agree with Mirka - try Survivor next. It's a good read.

Thanks! Yeah, my buddy gave me Invisible Monsters and Choke. I'll have to pick up survivor but from the sounds of it, it's going to be another straight through read. One author just gave me a long to-do list for reading.

lolz food porn.

Choke is incredible. I read fight club first then survivor. Then IM. Chuck, to me, is like Led Zeppelin: I love him more every day.

I definitely recommend reading Fight Club. After all it was Chuck's first published novel.
