I disliked the book. There seemed to be no coherent plot, no storyline. Some incidents are described well, but that's not enough for me.

The Tralfadorians and the time travelling, looking back at the book, must be delusions. If they were real, there's no proper exploration of the effects there would really be.

I suspect that their reality is intentionally ambiguious, which I don't like. If the novel is speculative fiction, then they should be 'real' in the novel. If it's not speculative fiction, then they're poor delusions, and over-emphasized.

I disliked the book.
