Invisible Monsters - Chuck Palahniuk

This is our book club book for the month of Dec. Chosen by a boy, of course. A total waste of my time. How incredibly extreme - the only way to lead a real life is to either get a sex change or blow your face off. And in telling the story from a woman's perspective - she was totally unbelievable. This book is basically a ludicrous fairytale circling around the idea that you have to step outside of reality - outside of something you can even conceive - in order to truly live. Very much like Journey to Ixtlan. Although it was a fast read, the plot "twists" were predictable as well in their lack of reality. Definitely avoid this one.
