I really wanted to start being more picky about my 5 star books, but something about this book just resonated with me very deeply. Maybe it’s Vonneguts writing style or the premise that really wowed me. I just remember getting about half way through this book and thinking wow I really wish I was smart enough to write something like this. It’s so weird and confusing but also very human and genuine at the same time.

bit of a wild (mega) ride 

Relevant. Intriguing. Dark.
Somehow, I was caught thinking of how to react with this book. Do i like it because it was a classic or I like it because of its weirdness?
I was caught between the reality of the war and the world of Tralfamadorians and their belief of life and death. And now, I am still stuck in between.
