Gotta love the crazy rich person’s warped view of the world

Amazing critique of greed and power and the way people who have been given insane quantities of money look down upon others I would be so intrigued to hear with someone like Jeff Bezos thinks of this book

Love me some insane greed

I love how Vonnegut always tries to explain the world from an observed perspective. Love the idea of an infinitely rich man being a semi lunatic alcoholic who believes in anti-capitalist ideas. You can always feel his soul trying to climb out of his skin through the pages

Quick read is super refreshing

Love the sprinkling in of a little critique of capitalism

To watch all the characters live die grow and change throughout the entire period of the book is just fucking amazing. I’m almost done and it’s still so fucking good. Not to mention the emotional depth of the book and the consistency of quotes that bring up hidden emotions.
So fucking close to being done

Moving. The. needle.

4 away from 1000

Honestly hate Pierre bro fell into money has shittiest personality I think I’ve ever seen almost had a good arc going back down

I love how all the different families and characters in the families have their own little plot lines that intertwine with each other

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SO FUCKING GOOD THOUGH

HALF. WAY. THROUGH.

From a historical perspective I love the nuance which he approaches the causes for the restarting of the Napoleonic wars in 1812

Oh my God I’m not even halfway through yet still good as fuck though

It’s actually astounding how well a man can nail so many perspectives whether it be a masonic versus religious one or a nihilistic versus optimistic one. It’s like the man himself lived 100 lives
