I saw the movie, "Fight Club", years ago. I had what was probably a typical woman's reaction in that I couldn't get past the violence. It was difficult to evaluate the story because my attention was taken from it. At that time I didnt even make note of the author of the book.

Recently my 16 year old gave me a copy of "Diary" by Chuck Palahniuk. I loved it. While Diary does venture a little into the paranormal I was completely caught up in the mystery. The tension builds well and keeps the book a definite page turner. The author uses some literary devices that are quite unusual and their purpose wasn't clear until the end of the book. I enjoyed his prose as well as his creativity. I also enjoy writers who are able to convincing ly write from the viewpoint of the opposite gender. I would reccomend this to anyone who would enjoy a mindbending little mystery.
