Lullaby Chuck Palahniuk 9780099437963 Books

Like all of Palahnuik's books, I was sad yet relieved when this one ended. Each book I read from him is my new favorite. It's hard to say if this is darker than his others but it had parts where I literally grimaced, winced, tensed up, and shuddered. I started this book on a Tuesday night and had it finished by lunchtime on Wednesday - I just couldn't put it down. I don't like saying his stories have "a twist" because each page is pretty much another turn, another spiral, another unending row of antiqued furniture in a maze of a wholesale warehouse - or a curving, twisted spell in an ancient grimoire. He doesn't pull Sixth Sense "ahas" at the end; rather, each character has their own arc that you never see coming. This book took a lot out of me emotionally and it was worth every second.

Lullaby Chuck Palahniuk 9780099437963 Books Reviews


I've been a fan of Chuck Palahniuk for about 14 years now. I've read this book before, but needed to add it to my collection.
It's a great, mysterious tale that gives thought to the power of words. Like all Palahniuk books, it's full of twists and turns, yet has a dark comedic feel. I would definitely recommend this book to any fan.
This was the first novel I'd read by Chuck Palahniuk, as I had heard some good reviews of his writing style and decided to check out one of his novels, and I started off with Lullaby. This novel is very different then anything I've ever read, both the writing style and plot but I felt it was incoherent at times, so I'll give my best description of what it's about.

The story focuses on a journalist named Carl Streater telling the events in detail, and gives an introduction to what is going on. He was once married and had a daughter, but he read them both a "culling song" from an old storybook that apparently will kill anyone that hears it. Carl himself in his present job is assigned to writing stories about cases of sudden infant death syndrome, and he begins to suspect that others have read the same culling song to their children and only he knows of its true power. But Carl himself is cynical and angry and develops an ability to kill people by merely thinking the song towards someone.

He then determines to collect all copies of the book and destroy them and is assisted by a real estate agent named Helen, who knows of the culling song and agrees to help him and they also want to find some spell book that contains all kinds of mystical spells/curses.

I won't give any rest away but I will say the novel sometimes tends to lose focus and at times I think Palahniuk just ranted on certain aspects of society he finds ignorant and repulsive. For example, early on in the book he devotes an entire chapter fuming on what he describes as a "quiet phobia" people have to where they can't stop listening to TV and radio.

But all in all I think this was a very good horror/thriller novel that has a pretty scary idea, being able to kill someone by saying or thinking a song, so I will say this is a good read but it may not be good for everyone.
This one is a keeper.

I was just turned on to Palahniuk after randomly picking up one of his titles at the bookstore years ago. I thought the premise sounded unique and promising, but I didn't read it until a few years later. I wish I would have read it sooner. Palahniuk has quickly become one of my favorite authors. I was skeptical that this book wouldn't be up to par after reading a handful of terrible reviews, but it was fantastic.

His books are unpredictable at best, and this one is no exception. He carries reoccurring themes into each of them, but they don't seem rehashed or strained. They always make me seriously think about...well, everything. I found it hard to put this book down. The characters are very well developed and the pacing is perfect. And did I mentioned unpredictable? Most of the concepts he elaborates on ("Imagine a plague you can catch through your ears.") are things that I've never thought about. The only thing that bothered me was the occasional grammar mistake or missing punctuation, which is different than Palahniuk's own style of grammar. (You'll see what I mean if you read it.) What I liked the most about this particular title was the twists and crazy elements that have been unified in one story and made it stand out. It's not urban fantasy but has elements of paranormal. It's not a horror, but it has ghosts, bathtubs filled with blood and haunted houses. Instead, it mimics real life and sprinkles in a bunch of different genres.

People not used to Palahniuk's writing style will either love it or hate it. This was great; I hope more of his titles become available on soon!
LULLABY by CHUCK PALNUCHICK

Not even close to the brilliance of "The Fight Club." Not quite a unique a narration as "Damned." A world of difference (to the better) over the last CP I read, which I didn't care for. To the point I don't even remember the title! Fan Club? The one with all the bolded name dropping? Read Lullaby instead. Or Damned. Even Choked. Absolutely Fight Club.

With this book, in a premise only Palnuchick or his twisted sister could of envisioned, and maybe only he could of carried off, he is back to form. Lullaby is dark, black humor plumed into a road trip that swings some curves with the unlikeliest of partners on a mission—to save innocents from SIDS, even while one is profiting from a too soothing Olde African Lullaby.

If you're a fan, and you like his black humor, it's worth the read.

P.S. Not Fan Club, lol ; ) It's "Tell-All." Sigh, not so memorable a Chuck for me.

I purchased "Lullaby" off from Full Paper Jacket in the Hardcover Edition and it came to me in the time stated and in great condition. I was extremely pleased.
