Summary
Chuck Palahniuk, literature’s favorite transgressive author, gives us twenty-one stories and one novella in Make Something Up, a compilation that disturbs and delights in equal measure. In “Expedition,” fans will be thrilled to find to see a side of Tyler Durden never seen before in a precursor story to Fight Club. And in other stories, the absurdity of both life and death are on full display: in “Zombies,” the best and brightest of a high school prep school become tragically addicted to the latest drug craze—electric shocks from cardiac defibrillators; in “Knock, Knock,” a son hopes to tell one last off-color joke to a father in his final moments; and in “Tunnel of Love,” a massage therapist runs the curious practice of providing “relief” to dying clients. Funny, caustic, bizarre, poignant, these stories represent everything readers have come to love and expect from Chuck Palahniuk. You’ll never forget them. Just try.

If you don’t know that Palahniuk’s writing is straight up disturbing (disgusting at times) and bizarre, this is not for you. I’ve read a few of his books so I found this entertaining and the stories really stuck in my head. Gets a little boring in the middle but picks up again in the last few tales.

This was ... meh. Don't get your hopes up for this one. The stories are random and don't excite you in any shape or form. Read something else. Credit goes to the narrators having to read these boring stories.

This was a 'VIP' free book (the only one in the list that looked even remotely interesting). But no thanks. I didn't even get through the first story. Life is just too short to hear some of that content. There are a million things I'd rather listen to. I would have given 0 stars if I could.

some of these stories are horrific, but some are extremely good

This book is filled with crude stories. I felt like I was on a construction site with drug addled worker telling me stories about what happened to a friend. Stories you can’t unhear? These are stories you’d never want to hear. I could only listen to 3 - 4 stories. Really really really bad. The only bright spot? I used my free VIP credit for this book.

Once again, Chuck Palahniuk makes me love reading and leaves me wanting more at the end of each short story.
