I just reread that for about the seventh time this past fall. I love that book. Vonnegut was a genius - I love everything he did. I really enjoy Welcome to the Monkey House - it has the short story "Harrison Bergeron" in there, which was the story I read in sixth grade that made me fall in love w/Vonnegut.

I've read The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged - while I don't agree with Rand's philosophies much, but they're both really well-written, interesting books. They're very good books to debate, too.

I wish it came out this week before I travel - I love Chuck Palahniuk! I always feel a little weird about reading his stuff in public, though - it almost feels dirty because of some of the content!
