Diary | Chuck Palahniuk

It has been years, YEARS, since I had read Palahniuk. Beginning of the year: COVID, drumpf inauguration insanity, moving in the middle of winter & somehow the insanity - and satire of Palahniuk clicked again. This was one that I read very shortly after recovering from COVID and I couldn't decide which was more unsettling.

Reggie I read like 4 of his and then lost touch. Maybe I should try him again. Invisible Monsters and Haunted are my favorites of his. 4d

8-22-22: My 83rd finished book of 2022! Another bizarre book by Mr. Palahniuk. Shannon is a beautiful fashion model who suffers a terrible accident which leaves her disfigured. She loses all that is perfect in her life but gains Brandy Alexander, a transgender woman, who is going to help Shannon be reborn. ⭐️⭐️⭐️📖#️⃣8️⃣3️⃣

How do we carry parts of us when we go through change? Which parts do we let go, and which parts do we keep? What happens when we board up a house filled with our faults, and then need to break back in?

Pygmy | Chuck Palahniuk

so-so

I know this is supposed to be satire, but it was gratuitous and, quite frankly, kinda gross. And while the writing style was certainly unique, it quickly became distracting. I think I might not be quite smart enough for this one. 🤷🏻‍♀️
That said, there were some funny parts (the running joke about the missing batteries is hilarious, albeit a little vulgar), and I think I liked the ending. (CONT‘D ⬇️)…

Maggie4483 My cousin loaned this to me, and I gave her Zombie by Joyce Carol Oates. After I gave her Zombie (heavily based on Jeffrey Dahmer and VERY disturbing), I worried what she would think of me for recommending it. It only took until Ch. 2 of Pygmy to realize I had nothing to worry about. We are definitely cut from the same cloth 👯‍♀️
