Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut
4.0
"Breakfast of Champions" is what some would refer to as an "interesting" book with that look in their eyes that says they really aren't too sure of their real opinion is or they don't want to admit it was too weird for them.
That said, I really enjoyed the satire and totally crazy story. Vonnegut has a habit of basing certain characters on people from life and stating it throughout the book. He is an omnipresent narrator that draws attention to himself, especially in this book. Personally, I think that's a really neat narrative device that has a lot of potential.
I listened to an audio book version narrated by John Malkovich. It was perfect. I'm not sure if the book would have been as good read in my "head voice."
