I'm relatively new to Vonnegut's books, and I haven't read those ones yet. My favorite so far has been Slaughterhouse Five.

I like that one a lot, too - but I definitely prefer the three I mentioned above. Bluebeard and Jailbird are really enjoyable, too. The only ones of his I couldn't get into were Breakfast of Champions and God Bless You Mr. Rosewater, both of which some people think are among his best.

That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it.

I picked up Cat's Cradle earlier this afternoon, along with the first Harry Potter book and an armfull of others.

Oh MAN!!! I just finished reading book seven about half an hour ago and my head is still reeling. I'd planned to stay awake and read the whole thing, but had to get a few hours of shut-eye around seven this morning.

For any Potter fans, GO GET IT!

I'll withhold any other statements on it for the sake of those bent on reading it soon or just anyone who doesn't want to hear about what happened. I'll gladly divulge if you PM me, though.
