Synopsis: Well, it’s essentially about a character named Billy Pilgrim who becomes unstuck in time. It is also about war and Kurt Vonnegut,ect.
Thought: I really enjoyed it. I mean, I really wasn’t not expecting it. I had been hearing so many things about this novel for so long that my expectations were pretty high. I thought that it was going to be much better.

That’s not to say that I didn’t really enjoy it. It was really good. I really enjoyed the metafiction aspects as well as just the sheer hilarity of it. I generally tend to enjoy the absurdist stuff….dealing with the angst of life by laughing at its insanity.
