palahniuk--i like "choke", but that's all i've ever read, and it doesn't really count, because i only got halfway through, and it was a book on tape, so i didn't really read it. but he apparently gave it to my girlfriend with instructions to give it away to someone.

last book i read off my list was "the lust lizard of melancholy cove" by christopher moore. funny ****. it had that douglas adams style, where half the humor is in HOW he says things. it took 60 pages for me to warm up to the characters and settings, and then it took off with a wry, quirky sense of humor well worth reading. the ending seemed a little weak, but i was also really tired and fighting off the need to sleep so i could finish. i'd recommend it to anyone who likes douglas adams, for sure.
