It was decent as far as his books go. I was not impressed at all with Lullaby. Fight club is an amazing book better than the movie which is hard to do with such a great movie. I've found the more I've read of his books they are all generally the same and that is starting to turn me off.

Yeah I get what you mean.

I was expecting much more grotesque stories with this book, but they all can't be winners. And this still was pretty wierd so I thought it was satisfactory.

I'm reading Diary right now and I'm really not liking that one either. Starting to think maybe Fight Club was his best big hit. There's another I'm going to read by him but the title eludes me. I saw that it was written backwards or some such. When I was looking at it it goes from the last chapter to the first so that kind of intrigues me. He's definitely a twisted sole though. His ideas and stories are incredible but the more you read the more you realize he only knows one style of writing.
So far...

I've only read one of his books so far, Haunted being that one, but I do plan on looking for others.

Survivor is OK. Fight Club is better than the movie. Lullaby eh not so good. and then Haunted is pretty good too.
Wierd dude for sure.

Only read Choke and Invisible Monsters but no idea what haunted is like, might be worth buying.
