I keep seeing people misread the narrator in Fight Club

Too many folks in my book club think the narrator is Tyler from the start. The whole twist hits harder if you catch the early hints like when he's talking about his condo and the narration gets fuzzy. Anyone else notice this bugging them in group discussions?

Huh, I actually see it kind of the opposite way. The movie sets up pretty early that the narrator's got this fractured mental state, so the twist feels more like a reveal than a retcon to me. The condo scene just comes off as him being annoyed and detached, not necessarily two different people already.
