Slaughter-House Five

Imagine reliving your past over and over and over and over again. This is Pilgrim's unfun task. The creativity in making this book is amazing. Vonnegut really blew the reader's mind with the crazy amount of different things he puts in there. Not only does Billy Pilgrim "time travel" but he also is taken by aliens to Trafalmadore to be in a zoo exhibit. This book takes a lot of effort to muster up the brain power to process everything that's going on. How did Kurt Vonnegut do it? With so many places and times somehow Vonnegut ties it all into one book. It all has one main timeline. This book is quite the mind-blower.
