Yet, as with some other mixed opinion reads this year, I still liked it. The ultimate "fuck you" to God at the end and mordant tendency toward fatalism is incredible. I had a friend who in his early 20s called himself a "Bokononist", and I see why.

What didn’t go over my head was the problematic language, including a lot of super unnecessary ableism.
I was glad when this book was over.
