review 1: I'm giving this four stars as an average rating. After each story I wrote in a notebook about if the story brought any feelings, if it was well written, and similar critiques. With those questions of the story being good to me or not, I rated each on a scale of 1-5 stars. Out of the 20 stories my average was 3.8 stars. The book overall probably deserves 5 stars; not every story is for everyone, but most of the writers wrote a great story. Even if the subject wasn't the best to me, I could tell all the selected obviously have great talent in story writing.I definitely recommend this book, it is a great read overall!
review 2: The fact that a fair number of the glowing reviews here were written by those who have stories included in this collection is fairly telli... moreng. This collection is really a massive disappointment considering Palahniuk himself stamped it with his name. For the most part, it includes authors trying to ape Palahniuk's style and doing a poor job of it. Characterization is weak, and there weren't really any standout stories for me in the bunch. Biggest bust of the year so far for me. less
