Reviews
A harrowing, perverse, laugh-aloud funny rocket ride of catastrophes.... Gutsy, terse, and cunning, ?Invisible Monsters ?may emerge as Palahniuk's strongest book., ?Invisible Monsters could scare the tights off the ratings board.... A wildly plotted, quick-read showcase of his hip, perverse humor and dark imagination., Palahniuk is either crazy or genius--his wildly inventive plotlines are from so far left field they might as well be lobbed from outer space; his language is quick and clever and impossibly honest and nasty (serrated, not graphic); his style--this time jumping through logical time like a nervous whippet--breaks all rules and conventions, like he never even learned them.... Invisible Monsters ?is a soap opera wrapped in a mystery; an enigma swaddled in a Bret Easton Ellis nightmare., Fast-paced.... Everyone wants to be someone else, and in this hilarious book, they get the chance., Chuck Palahniuk's stories don't unfold. They hurtle headlong, changing lanes in threes and banging off the guard rails of modern fiction. This time he has really done it. ?Invisible Monsters? makes... ?Fight Club'... seem like a leisurely buggy ride.

Synopsis
Love, betrayal, petty larceny, and high fashion fuel this deliciously comic novel from the author of Fight Club., She's a fashion model who has everything: a boyfriend, a career, a loyal best friend. But when a sudden freeway "accident" leaves her disfigured and incapable of speech, she goes from being the beautiful center of attention to being an invisible monster, so hideous that no one will acknowledge that she exists. Enter Brandy Alexander, Queen Supreme, one operation away from becoming a real woman, who will teach her that reinventing yourself means erasing your past and making up something better. And that salvation hides in the last places you'll ever want to look.

    Product was priced fairly & posted swiftly. Products not as 'new' as advertised, but not damaged. Overall a mostly positive shopping experience. Tip: Vendor wouldn't combine shipping prices for multiple purchases, despite info on their store page instructing customers to request it; however the vendor also graciously accepted my best offer for both items. Would've gone with a different vendor with cheaper postage if I inquired about this before purchasing, but that's on me.

    ebay does not allow a seller to combine shipping on multiple INTERNATIONAL (Australia) purchases through their global shipping program. Buyer was made clear of this after payment was made. Items shipped were new as described.

    Swift delivery. Not exactly "MINT" as described. has a scratch in center of plate deep enough to catch fingernail. This was just a replacement for a china set given to me and was missing one sandwich dish. No worries or big deal. It'll just be at the bottom of the stack. I still gave a positive report as I know things do happen and with the overall transaction, value, packaged well and shipping time were all very good. Thank you

    Camcorder came as advertised in the original selling post, packaging was done phenomenally as to make sure the camcorder wouldn’t move in the slightest even added the fragile sticker so it wouldn’t be thrown around or damaged, shipping was a lot cheaper than other sellers on the platform and I can’t complain about the price of said camcorder since it was a bid

  • Overall good quality

    Pages are in great condition, as is the binding. However, the cover of the book is dirty. It is as though it fell into a puddle and the muddy water dried on the cover. I did my best to clean it, but still you can tell it is dirty. It is a gift for my 16 year old daughter who loves used books, so she will likely appreciate that aspect of it lol. If I had bought for someone else, this would have likely been an issue for me though. For 'very good' condition, I wouldn't expect that. I do wish the description would have been a bit clearer.
