Query: Too bad it's this bad!

I would really love to be able to give this book a better ranking, but I can't. It really is that terrible; which surprised me more than it annoyed me. I love Chuck Palahniuk's other books; especially Choke and Survivor, but this one just has no real redeeming qualities. In all his books the characters are somewhat terrible people or at the very least not your usual protagonists, but I ended up identifying or even liking them almost against my better judgment. In Haunted, however, there are no redeeming characters or qualities. I just hated all of them and wished they would get it over with. Basically, if you filled a room with people who embodied everything wrong and shallow about pop culture/materialism you would have this cast and therefore this plot. It may not be so bad to watch them all die, but since they are all so irritating you need it to be over with quickly. At best it should have been a short story.
