And suddenly...


As I read this book I get more and more into it, I love the way Palahniuk writes. It's just a completely different style, he tells this story but it seems like it's been told by the thoughts of the main character. He throws ideas, just like that; simple, short, straight-to-the-point ideas. When he does this you feel really conected to the story and to the main character (which name is never revealed), you can really get his pure and concrete feelings. 
                "And suddenly, I felt nothing"

Sometimes having so many ideas, confuses a little, but for me this is a better way for the reader to understand how this character thinks and feels with every single thing that happens to him, you see HIS situation with HIS eyes.

How to read Fight Club?

So for now I've been reading Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. Many of you must have already heard about it, or at least about the movie. A long time ago I saw the movie, I remember I was with my cousin       and she told me it was a really good movie, so I thought "Well why not? It doesn't sound that bad, besides Brad Pitt is REALLY handsome". After the movie was over I was completely amused, this movie was great, clever, mysterious; simply awsome.
One day I was at my school and I saw one of my classmates had this book, I couldn't there was a book, I had never thought about it. So I talked to him so I could borrow his book, he did and now I have finished it.
While I was reading this book, since I have already seen the movie, I couldn't stop thinking about all the images of characters and places that appeared in the movie. So I highly recommend you take the time to read this book before seeing the movie, that way whle you are reading you let your imagination flow the way it should, after you finish check out the movie and compare them, so then you can wisely judge which one you enjoyed the most.
