This was an enjoyable read, lots of humor coming from the shock value of certain scenes, humorous at the level of grammar as well. I know I've read Lullaby, but I don't quite remember it, so I only really have Fight Club to compare to this. Which makes me worry Palahniuk is a one-trick pony. I was a bit disappointed that the ending sort of relied on the main character being psychologically deluded. Although in the case of this story, he sort of buys into someone else's psychological delusion.
