Friday Reads [1]

Currently Reading:

I am currently on page 152. I probably will not finish this book this weekend because I have a lot of studying to do for finals next week. Hopefully I can find a little time to get some reading done! I am really enjoying this book so far. I still get a little confused with all of her hallucinations, but I am getting more used to them as I read on. I can't wait to see what happens through the rest of the book!

What are you reading this weekend?

TBR Thursday [1]

This is a weekly meme where I will post the last book that I added to my TBR Shelf on Goodreads!

BTW, I'm totally blaming Whitney from WhittyNovels for making me want to read this!

Diary by Chuck Palahniuk

(Goodreads)

"CAN YOU FEEL THIS?"

Chuck Palahniuk, the bestselling author of Fight Club, Choke, andLullaby continues his twenty-first-century reinvention of the horror novel in this scary and profound look at our quest for some sort of immortality.

Diary takes the form of a "coma diary" kept by one Misty Tracy Wilmot as her husband lies senseless in a hospital after a suicide attempt. Once she was an art student dreaming of creativity and freedom; now, after marrying Peter at school and being brought back to once quaint, now tourist-overrun Waytansea Island, she's been reduced to the condition of a resort hotel maid. Peter, it turns out, has been hiding rooms in houses he's remodeled and scrawling vile messages all over the walls - an old habit of builders but dramatically overdone in Peter's case. Angry homeowners are suing left and right, and Misty&'s dreams of artistic greatness are in ashes. But then, as if possessed by the spirit of Maura Kinkaid, a fabled Waytansea artist of the nineteenth century, Misty begins painting again, compulsively. But can her newly discovered talent be part of a larger, darker plan? Of course it can.

Diary is a dark, hilarious, and poignant act of storytelling from America's favorite, most inventive nihilist. It is Chuck Palahniuk's finest novel yet.
