I was extremely lucky to find "Haunted" in my local Goodwill store, while with a friend of mine who also is a huge fan of Chuck Palahniuk, and introduced me to him by forcing me to read "Fight Club." 
 "Reading a Palahniuk novel is like getting zipped inside a boxer's heavy bag while the author goes to work on you, pounding you until there is nothing left but a bag of bones and blood and pain." 
 --The Miami Herald. 
 I must address this quote. I read it, found it hilarious, and proceeded to buy "Haunted" and begin reading it immediately 
 Wow. It's really hard to read/rate a Chuck Palahniuk book after reading "Fight Club," because every so often I find myself thinking "It's really good... but it's not fight club." because, really, there can only be one "fight Club." That being said, I still thoroughly enjoyed reading "Haunted" I loved all the stories, although I did find myself getting a little lost in the book, just because of all the stories, and poems being added into the main story. I really did love the afterward by Palahniuk "The guts effect, an afterward (or warning) of sorts." Out of all the stories, I think my top three favorites were: "Guts" (because it was so disgusting, and I couldn't believe after I read the afterward that they had all happened!), "Foot Work" (because the whole thing was hilarious), and "Dog Years" (because he is such a messed up person!). 
 this review has ended up being weird and disjointed. Basically, "Haunted" is amazing, and it must be read!
