choke- seriously
All right I'll jump in with a gut response to choke. It sucked. I got that "nothing was what it seemed" pretty quick but he never let up. I'm really not choking, she's really not a doctor, it's not really a colonial town, a fire alarm is not really a fire alarm, sex is not really an addiction, etc... He beat the shit out of that theme like a Sadistic Lord of manor whipping a masochistic pariah in the stockade. I stuck out the book for the anticipated non-sequitor ending that Chuck "the suck" Palunikkicincinuk is known for. Choke was actually the first book I have read by him. I did see fight club and thought it kicked ass so was anxious to read one of his novels. I'm over my curiosity. One of the passages I could really have done without was when the crazy futuristic alien M.D. was flossing an old ladies teeth while trying to generate some sort of sexual tension with our tragic hero. Dumb. Impregnated by J.C's foreskin. Dumb. You guy's I like, Choke I didn't.
