I've read quite a few of his books, Survivor is very interesting but loses it quite a bit at the end, but I think Palahniuk is a great writer when it comes to leaving the reader alone to make up their own mind about the characters and the circumstances surrounding them.

Obviously Fight Club is great book, his debut actually and very dark and edgy.

Invisible Monsters is probably his weakest novel but still worth a read.

The Diary was the last book of his I read and it is quite intoxicating, though the plot is quite silly (it's about a woman whose husband is in a coma) but the way he writes penetrates you.

I didn't like Choke because I couldn't get into to it and didn't actually manage to finish it.

I've read a few.

By far Survivor and Fight Club are my faves

I couldnt make it through Invisible Monsters, and although I bought it, I have not finished Lullaby. (My wife gave birth to our 3rd child right around the time I got that one, and I have always had a huge fear of SIDs, so my superstitions or fears got the best of me and I still havent picked it up again)
And I did finish Choke, but was severely dissapointed in it.

I haven't read it yet, but I just feel the book authored by Palahniuk has something "magical" to us

Yeah I've read a few. I think Lullaby and Choke are my favourites. Definitely pretty weird but a good comment on modern American society too...

I even have examine "Lullaby" and "combat club". I enjoyed the two certainly one of them and plan on examining "Choke" and "Survivor" next. in case you like Palahniuk, you would be able to desire to objective some Tom Robbins. "Jitterbug physique spray", "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues", or "yet another Roadside attraction". yet another advice would desire to be O'toole's "Confederacy of Dunces". I even have additionally heard of Palanhiuk being whilst in comparison with Vonnegut. i in my opinion do not see it, yet nicely, what do i understand? I
