DAMNED (Chuck Palahniuk) - December 5/11

Okay, that's it. I think I'm finally done with Chuck Palahniuk. This boring, utterly unreadable novel is packed with descriptive passages that are almost uniformly meaningless, and I found myself quickly scanning paragraphs just because they were so torturous. There is absolutely no narrative momentum in this thunderously dull book, as Chuck spends far too much time dwelling on things of a gross and "shocking" nature. What the hell is the point of all this? What a colossal waste of time. * out of ****
