Product Description:
From the master of literary mayhem and provocation, a full-frontal Triple X novel that goes where no American work of fiction has gone before
Cassie Wright, porn priestess, intends to cap her legendary career by breaking the world record for serial fornication. On camera. With six hundred men. Snuff unfolds from the perspectives of Mr. 72, Mr. 137, and Mr. 600, who await their turn on camera in a very crowded green room. This wild, lethally funny, and thoroughly researched novel brings the huge yet underacknowledged presence of pornography in contemporary life into the realm of literary fiction at last. Who else but Chuck Palahniuk would dare do such a thing? Who else could do it so well, so unflinchingly, and with such an incendiary (you might say) climax?

I hate to be mean to authors because they're giving it their best (or at least I hope so), but this book made me feel like Palahniuk is just writing because it's his job. It wasn't a gripping tale like Fight Club or even Diary, and it was only 180 pages so it's only entertaining for a day. He throws a lot of gross descriptions in the book for filler, like how the floor is covered in sex goo, and that's about all you get out of it besides a twisted love triangle between the guys in the waiting room ...

First of all, like many of the other reviewers here, I am an avid fan of Chuck Palahniuk, so let me just get that out of the way. Also, like many of the other reviewers here, I'd highly recommend his earlier books, specifically his first four; Fight Club, Survivor, Invisible Monsters and Choke...undoubtedly the 4 masterpieces (thus far) in his career. If you are new to his work, absolutely read those four first before you get to this, if you have to get to this one at all.
My biggest complaint ... Read More

After ignoring the negative hype, I had the misfortune of reading this GARBAGE! I have loved most of Palhniuk's other works. Haunted, Rant and Fight Club are my three favorites. The typical brilliant twist at the end of Palahniuk's books was absent, not only that the replacement ending was the fusing of two unspeakable *cough* things. DOn't READ IT. I did after ignoring everybody on earth, what a mistake!
Rating: -
If you've read this book, you're probably already a Palaniuk fan and could care less about this review. A couple of the characters in the book he developed well but the rest of the novel was rather lacking. Still, the novel is just as deranged as his others and most likely won't disappoint a true fan.
Rating: -
Snuff is mediocre. Worth reading if you're a Palahniuk fan, but wait to buy it in paperback. As usual, Chuck shows us the disgusting mess on the bottom of our shoe, in graphic detail. He doesn't hesitate to show us how attached to the meaningless details of life we become. The story was good, and there were a few small twists. I came away looking at the porn industry, relationships, and sex in a new light.
Nothing here hasn't been said before, however. It's kind of "more of the same" from Palahniuk. ... Read More
