The Contortionist’s Handbook by Craig Clevenger
My Rating: 5 stars After an overdose of painkillers, Daniel Fletcher wakes up in a Los Angeles trauma center and is detained for psychiatric evaluation. Again. Except his name isn’t really Daniel Fletcher. Or Eric Bishop. Or Christopher Thorne. All of these names belong to one man – John Dolan Vincent – an intelligent and […]

Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk
My Rating 3 stars Just when it seemed impossible….I actually dislike a Chuck Palahniuk book. The book is about a song, the “culling” song and when this song is read aloud, whoever hears it dies. The main character is a journalism who is researching cases in which babies and young children have died because their […]

Summer Reading
Since I have survived my first few days and the first Monday of my sophomore year, I thought now would be a good time to discuss summer reading. I’d have to say my two favorite authors this summer were definitely Chuck Palahniuk and Jennifer Brown. I suggest Chuck Palahniuk to anyone who asks for books […]

Fight Club
My Rating: 5 stars After I finished reading this book last month, I couldn’t wait to watch this movie. Considering how much I loved the book, I wanted to see it brought to life and how it would all be played out. And honestly, I absolutely loved it. Edward Norton starred as the Narrator, Brad […]

Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk
My Rating: 5 stars *Rated PG-13 She had everything. She was a fashion model who had the perfect boyfriend, best friend and the career she had always wanted. Then a sudden accident leaves her face disfigured and incapable of speech, everything goes downhill. She goes from being the center of attention, as a model, to […]
