Breakfast of Champions Review
Aug. 24th, 2024 05:20 amBreakfast of Champions is an American novel published in 1973, written by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. I read this back in June as part of my adventure to read a book every month - an endeavor I've halted for the past two months, for the months of July and August, because I've been in New York, USA (where Vonnegut lived his later years!) with my girlfriend Bea, making our full-length debut album for our rock band.
However, I decided I Would return my endeavour starting September, hoping to read two books every month to make up for the lost months. To do that, I first have to review the book I read in June, Breakfast of Champions, which is also my favourite novel of all time.

The Humans review
May. 29th, 2024 12:48 amThe Humans is a novel published in 2013 by English authour Matt Haig. I've often told people in my life that this is my favourite novel of all time. It certainly became one quickly, when I first read it back in 2016, as a teenager. Now, while I still consider it to be a beautiful story, it is not my favourite book. I've read more books and authours in my life since then. But it still holds a special place in my heart, as cheesy as that is. But this book is perhaps the definition of cheese.
Quick statistics. I read this book across 7 days during 3 weeks, for a total of 342 minutes. I remember the book being longer, but it was a breeze to read through again.

Slaughterhouse-Five review
Apr. 28th, 2024 12:41 amSlaughterhouse-Five is an American novel published in 1969, and written by Kurt Vonnegut. It's the fourth novel I've read this year, and the second book by Vonnegut, who is my favourite authour.
Statistics time: I started reading this book on the 1st of April and finished it on the 27th of April. There was about a two week period in the middle of that when I wasn't reading anything, though. I read it for a total of 267 minutes, or about 4 hours and a half. It's not a long book, and I've read it several times before.
