That's 'snuff, Chuck!

I'm not really sure whether I'd classify Chuck Palahnuik's novels (Fight Club, Snuff) as boychik lit. From my point of view, the boychik protagonist is geekier and more pitiable than his brawlers. But that's for you to decide, not me.

But now Carolyn Kellogg reports in her book blog in the L.A. Times that Chuck is giving away inflatable dolls at his book signings.

Did one of you guys let him in here when we weren't looking? What's up with this doll mania? First Jerry (Boston Legal), then Lars, and now this?

The niche is getting downright tight, if you ask me!
