I always want to be punk and hipster and hate Chuck Palahniuk because he's popular, but I can't. Fuck. Whatever. I guess I've read Invisible Monsters twice now, and fuck, it was even better the second time through, and fuck, the remix format is kind've fucking brilliant. The calling out of the fashion magazine vignette-y format at the beginning brought some next level verisimilitude. It feels like a House of Leaves style experiment, but more streamlined? More focused? What's another word for verisimilitude? Cinema verite? Who knows, fuck it. I love this fucking book.
