Snuff- Fiction


As with most of Chuck Palahniuks books, they are not for the faint of heart. Here he delves into the world of pornography and into the moments leading up to and surrounding the life of porn queen Cassie Wright and her decision to break the world record of serial fornication- 600 men to be exact. The alternating voices in each chapter can get irksome if you don't like that kind of thing but it does keep the story fresh and helps it unfold in a unique way. Overall I felt a little set up for the end but the ultimate finish is worth it. If you're a palalhniuk fan or a 'collector of all things erotic' this book is for you (or if you're curious about what surrounds porn)- but if you're squimish about sex don't even bother picking it up.
