you know the saying people say when they find someone just absolutely hilarious - "they could read the phone book and itd still be funny", i think that applies to Vonnegut too. He could write the phone book and he'd make it a hilarious and also somehow life-changing experience. the ending of this is truly beautiful and haunting yet most of the book is hilarious and biting. i'm officially 100% in on Vonnegut as one of my favorites ever
