It was a book that took some concentration to read. I'm usually a pretty fast reader, but this realtively short book (less than 150 pages) took me several days opposed to the xiuple of hours many other books that size. I had to read it in small chunks (and have other books running too).
Someone said in the "vote threat" it was almost like poetry, and I agree with that. The repeated "so it goes" fits well with poetry, and I liked it.
While reading I thought about the time travel and why it was there. It seems to me too that it's some sort of coping mechanism, from the days before post-war-this-and-that.
The Trafalmadore episodes (when actually there, not just the time travel), including the gorgeous lady, had me thinking "what was he smoking?!"
I liked the book!
