At first the slow paste of the book was a bit annoying for me but with time the witty and ironic style made it so much enjoyable. The end was also great and overall this was one good entry in Vonnegut's writing.

Its exploration of science, religion, and the human condition makes it a timeless work that continues to inspire and challenge readers. For those who appreciate satire and speculative fiction, “Cat’s Cradle” is an essential read.
