Not impressed. I guess 3 stars.

So, occasionally I try to pick up classics and give them a try, since I don't feel I read that many in school. This one was recommended to me because it has aliens in it, maybe. This is also my first Vonnegut book. Personally, I'm going to say I wasn't that impressed. The first chapter made me think there was no way I'd get through it. But the second chapter at least was better. The story got interesting, and probably the fact that I'd watched the World War I documentary that Peter Jackson did while I was reading this helped me to be in the mood to read a war story. While I wasn't impressed, it did at least keep my attention. There was one thing the author kept repeating, "So it goes", and that got a bit annoying. The weirdest thing of all, is that the parts with the aliens reminded me of dreams I've had. Maybe that means I've been taken by aliens?
