This is one last quote from Survivor since I've finished it. Sorry, no photos.

I know this book is meant to be funny but I started crying just as Tender hit his brother's face with a rock. This is when his brother has a bloody dashboard statuette sticking out his left eye after he banged his head against the dashboard when the car hit the wall. When he asks Tender to keep hitting his face with a rock and promises to tell Tender to stop if he couldn't take it anymore. This assisted suicide. I need a happy book to read next, one that would make me laugh out loud instead of ha ha ha.

"Maybe after everybody dying around me, I've just developed a skill for losing people. A natural talent. A blessing.

The same as Fertility's being barren is the perfect job skill for her being a surrogate mother, maybe I've developed a useful lack of feeling.

The same way you might look at your leg cut off at the knee and not feel anything at first, maybe this is just shock.

But I hope not.

I don't want it to wear off.

I pray not to feel anything ever again.

Because if it wears off, this is all going to hurt so much. This is going to hurt for the rest of my life."

-- Chuck Palahniuk, Survivor.
