I finished Slaughterhouse-Five yesterday, my first Vonnegut, and can’t stop thinking about it since...

The book is anti-war, as described by the author, and part autobiographical.

It’s the story of Billy Pilgrim, told back and forth, from his days in WWII to his life post-war.

Billy travels through time, seeing his past and his future, after being abducted by Tralfamadorians and visiting their planet.

Sci-fi, or the unbelievable effects of war to a soldier’s mind? It’s complex and unlike any reading experience I’ve had - much, I imagine, like the experience of war itself.

Needless to say, this one for me gets all the stars.
