Red Rabbit was not as good as his earlier books.

Funny how that makes an impact on the story. Have you ever read Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk? It drove me to the point of putting the book down. In that instance, I thought the movie was much better than the book.Quote:

I have not read Fight Club; it was on my list but after your comment I might check out a sample first. I don't know much about him but in my head he is classified as a beatnik writer. Beatnik writers tend to be very hit-or-miss. It really pisses me off when I can't finish a book. Mark Twain's Autobiography is really testing my patience right now.Quote:
