Chuck Palahniuk
Acquintance with bibliography of Chuck Palahniuk - the remarkable point in my life. It's hard to believe, but fact - my first book was not Fight Club. By the years, I already forgot, where I got a copy of Choke. But what I remember clearly - it's feeling both shock and excitement. Palahniuk literature tricks like a not linear narrative, mixing with shock content and odd personalities around the books, charmed me. I read 1 novel about each 2 days, and can not stop (Due to I read them in my native Russian).I tried to read related writers later, but it's not so what I want.

Chuck Palahniuk
My acquaintance with the bibliography of Chuck Palahniuk has been a remarkable point in my life. It's hard to believe, but the fact is that my first book was not Fight Club. After so many years, I have already forgotten, where I got a copy of Choke. But what I remember clearly is feeling both shock and excitement. Palahniuk's literature tricks, like a not linear narrative mixing with shock content and odd personalities around the books, charmed me. I read 1 novel in about 2 days, and could not stop (Due to reading it in my native Russian). I tried to read related writers afterwards, but they were not what I wanted.Hi Slava, great text! Don't be disappointed by the amount of corrections, I just tried to make it sound more natural. Apologies if I misunderstood anything.
You seem to enjoy writing complex sentences, which is great. But two things to keep in mind in those long compound sentences, that might help you:
- in Russian it is usual to use the hyphen " - " where in english we would use the verb "to be" (especially since in russian you omit the verb "to be" in the present tense). So, in your first sentence, you wrote two clauses but no verb, which is natural in Russian but in English doesn't sound right.
- The commas to separate clauses are used differently in English and Russian. In your sentence "Palahniuk literature tricks like a not linear narrative, mixing with shock content and odd personalities around the books, charmed me." With the commas in these locations, the subject of "charmed me" looks to be "linear narrative". But the subject of "charmed me" is "Palaniuk's literature tricks". So, that's where the commas should be, after "tricks" and before "charmed me". What is in the middle is a sub-clause which describes those literature tricks, and I would probably avoid using commas in that segment, to avoid confusion.
