puppy's must read


Diary, a novel 
by Chuck Palahniuk

The first time i heard about Chuck Palahniuk was in Fight Club, a movie directed by David Fincher. This movie is an adaptation of Chuck's Palahniuk novel "Fight Club". The film is just perfect, the characters are all sick and was an invitation to read all the books of this autor.
Palahniuk is novelist and journalist, and the book i'm going to recommend of him is a novel he wrote on 2003 called "Diary (a novel)". The story (sick as Fight Club) is about a girl and and a turistic island. The girl's name is Misty and she works in the hotel of the island. Her husband is in a coma after he tried to kill himself, so he writes a diary about all the sad and sickness that happens in the island while he's sleeping. The book himself is the diary of Misty, who is an frustrated artist and leaves is potential career to follow his love to an island that pretends to be an oasis but in the narration of Misty we can realise about the sad place that really is. Weird stuff happens in the island and is connected to the suicide of Misty's husband, her paintings an the Hotel, the island is a nightmare itself.
 I read it last summer and i like it because a thing that makes me love all Palahniuk's books that i can't describe exactly, maybe is his style of writting or maybe his characters are always so depressed that makes me feel better, i don't know why.
