One of the weirdest books I’ve read in a good way. Fully intend to re-read again and again. The ending was perfect.

Whereas I can appreciate that Vonnegut is a skilled writer and his ideas were way ahead of its time, I simply did not enjoy reading this book

I believe the worst elements of my person and the worst elements of this book kinda came together and mashed to created the worst reading experience ever known to humanity.
I save the one gay character (I like to imagine him blonde)
Also I had to read this for book club so that probably didn’t help either.
Peace.
