Re: Which Palahnuik book first?
for one thing you didn't even include invisible monsters, so no you are wrong.
to answer the OP- it really depends, are you going to read all of chuck's work? if so i would just start from the beginning b/c some of them are one-sitting books.
a little FYI: Invisible Monsters was the first book he ever wrote but couldn't get it published b/c of how graphic it was and the content so that was the reason behind Fight Club. Chuck thought it was funny that he got FC signed with a publisher within the first week of the manuscript being sent in (he says he scared them into publishing it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])
i would start with either Invisible, Survivor or Fight Club and once those are read go to Choke, then Lullaby, Diary etc.
Survivor is my personal favorite.
