Gj Bae _ce23 — ** spoiler alert ** This novel was pretty good. Although in my opinion I liked Life As We Knew It better. But the way Alex protected his sister Bri and Julie without his parents was amazing. At the beginning I had hope that his Mami would come back, or that Alex would hear from her at some point. But once I read that the subways had flooded and people had died in the subway tunnels, I knew their Mami was dead. It amazed me how strong Alex was for Bri and Julie. When Bri died, it didn't bother me, because for me she wasn't all that big of a character in the story. Pfeffer thought this story out really well. It was amazing. But what I noticed in this novel was that there was less details about the actual asteroid colliding with the moon. So, it was kind of like you had to read Life As We Knew It first. Anyways, all in all this was a phenomenal read.

Yingying Feng _ndieyingying — Breakfast of Champions can be viewed lightly for its quirky humor, but is most enjoyable and meaningful if one extends the humor to a witty, no-holds-barred critique of this society. I say viewed, instead of read, because Vonnegut intersperses his own comical sketches to help illustrate the often bizarre situations described in his colorful, sometimes playful, textual adventure. The opening line, "This is a tale of a meeting of two lonesome, skinny, fairly old white men on a planet which was dying fast" basically describes the importance of the plot to this novel. That is, the plot isn't meant to be as compelling as the humorous, subtle and insightful observations of the characters. Vonnegut directly or indirectly touches on subjects such as race, labor, and washing machines; and 'copper-colored Native Americans' and white 'Sea Pirates' during North American colonization. The sometimes shocking descriptions are not politically correct, and indeed would lose their humor and therefore impact if this book were edited by, say, Ann Coulter. Vonnegut's pessimism and sometimes obscure/extreme perspective can overwhelm the humor if the reader lets it, and the novel comes off as flat and even mindless when this happens. So pick up this book expecting not elaborate prose and exacting diction, but a satiric and hilarious viewing.

Simon Rail simonrail — "Literary" fiction at its best. A quiet book tightly focused on the minutia of life in a New England fishing village around the turn of the 19th/20th centuries, the prose is poetry with no frou-frou. I can't say enough good things about it. The "Dunnet Shepherdess" story that's included with my edition was the best, but only because I'd read the book before it. This is going on my "to be read and reread" "take me away to someplace else" pile.
