newsreel armies march over his face

So, has anyone else read Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk and gotten phenomenally depressed?

Okay, it's satirical in nature and a percentage of the elements are just absurd and I was kind of hormonal at the time, but some of the stuff in there is just really sad.

It's just a bad sign when rereading Geek Love seems like a pick-me-up.

Behind on commenting, sorry; I'll get there!

Maybe I should start on Yuletide, too. Yes, I am made of 100% fail.

Which one is Haunted? I read Lullaby this summer and went through a good long week of nonfiction to get over the funk that one put me in.

A bunch of people go on a writers' retreat and end up being held captive and ultimately sabotaging their means of sustainability in order to make their plight more dramatic. That story is interspersed with stories from each of the writers' lives.

Thanks for the heads-up; I think I'll sidestep Lullaby.
