Cat's Cradle finished 12 JUL 2019: When I started CC, I couldn't for the life of me remember anything about it, and was convinced for quite some time that I hadn't read it before. The mention of ice-nine tweaked a tiny chord in the back of my mind but it wasn't until very close to the end that something happened to one particular much admired female character and BOOM! Hotel California.

Breakfast of Champions finished 12th Aug. A seething mass of disparate threads, entirely typical of "Grandpa" Kurt's fayre that is all drawn together in a challenging and slightly overwhelming manner. Of course I enjoyed it, though "enjoyed" is probably the wrong description entirely.

Slaughterhouse 5 finished 26 JUL 19. War is absurd. (That's all I got.)

God Bless You, Mr Rosewater finished 21 JUL 19. I hadn't read this one before. I'm struggling to put my feelings into words about it. All I can find within myself to say is that "Grandpa Kurt" (not my real grandfather, more's the pity) left me in a state of warm fuzziness when I got to the end.
