content: I am a lukewarm Vonnegut fan. There are some of his books I enjoy (though there has never been one that I've "loved") and some that bore me to death. This one was OK for the 1st half. Though a bit tedious, it had it's moments. But after some time I became bored and couldn't bring myself to trudge through to the end. The characters were very annoying (especially the female one) and pretentious and I couldn't relate to all the angst and incessant belly-aching.To sum it up: A big bore.
