I've read Atwood - Pennelopiad, Payback, and a handful of poems and short stories. that trilogy is on the queue. I'm reading Ulysses right now, prob finish in 3-4 weeks.

Only Palahniuk I've read is survivor, and I enjoyed it a lot.

It's been rough, and I'll be 100 and say that I am comprehending maybe 1/10 of what is going on. The writing is fun though, so it keeps me going. At this point, I'm reading it just to read it; later in life I'll try to revisit it with a reader's guide to try and make sense of it. Infinite Jest is another intimidating title.
