A book review since it's ten o'clock and I've nothing to do

Mar 07, 2006 22:17

The woman who cuts my hair, you might call her a hairdresser but that sounds awfully girly, asked me if I had any weird hobbies. Weird to me meant like, booger sculpture, or minitiurizing heads, so I told her 'no'. I returned the question to be cordial, and since haircuts are entirely boring if there's no conversation. In response she said that ( Read more... )

Oh, come on...I love Chuck too, but Slaughterhouse 5 was awesome. Read "God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian" by Vonnegut and see if you don't laugh your ass off.

I've actually started reading "God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian". My only gripe about Slaughterhouse 5 was how many lists he made and that I couldn't discern a deeper meaning, I'm sure if I read it again I'd like it a lot better but for now I'm working on Cat's Cradle by Vonnegut or Me Talk Pretty One Day by Sedaris.

I liked "Me Talk Pretty One Day" but my favorite Sedaris is "Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim". "Naked" was pretty amazing, too. Have you ever read "Mother Night" by Vonnegut?

I started reading "Mother Night" I think, that's the one with the nazi and Nuremburg trials? Right? I enjoyed what I had read a lot. I had also read an excerpt from "Dress Your Family..." I liked that and was looking for that book when I found "Me Talk..." Unfortunately I didn't know where to look in Barnes and Noble so I was stuck with "Me Talk..." Good to know that Naked was good, I was looking at that one in Borders the other day.
