I just want to say Hi & I don't mean to offend anyone or make myself look like a jackass--but is Chuck Palahniuk & misanthropic thinking sooo 2004?

I have been out of the loop the last few years. I suppose I should read the updates. . .

I love Palahniuk's books, even when it was considered cooler to not like him by some more self-righteous twats. & Fight Club was an amazing book & film, but I cannot bring myself to watch that movie anymore. Oh & I won't mention Choke (the movie).

The last book I attempted to read (not of Palahniuk necessarily) was Lullaby. I was going through a bad phase where my ability to retain attention was non-existant. My pet ended up chewing the paperbackto shreds. . . I'll have to rebuy it.

But the last book of his I finished was, ok I cannot remember the title. I hope my genuine honesty is not rubbing anyone off the wrong way. Well anyways, it was the book with the woman stranded on a small island/town in a hotel. I have yet to really process whether or not I loved the book. (This was still during my phase).

Oh I hope my intro didn't make it seem like I just got into Palahniuk. Goodness no. But I did take a 4 or 5 or 7 year hiatus from reading, so I feel like I've missed a whole generation & am wondering if I'm rejoining it at a bad time.

I thought maybe I was over the Palahniuk phase, or the phase was over period. But try as I did, I found I still wanted to love it & renew it in me.

And thank you for your welcome!

Oh & to the poster above me, your video has embedding disabled.
