I appreciate this book. The humour, the plot, how simple yet complicated it is. But unfortunately I didn’t love it!
(But I’m still eager to read Vonnegut’s other work in the future.)

I enjoyed this book, but I have to say the tv programme was so much better! The characters felt a bit flat in the book!

A true Christmas classic! One I enjoy reading every year, and sitting at about 80 pages it so quick and fun!

This was a good book. An easy reading experience with some funny parts. However I did feel like it was a bit disjointed and I didn’t love it!

This was a re read after about 3 years, and I can honestly say it’s still one of my favourite books. I don’t know what it is about it, I just love it.

A nice fun way to end 2020 :)
