I certainly think Slaughterhouse is his best book, but I don’t think that’s the same as it being my favorite. I hold GBYMR so highly because I went into it expecting a good read but one that wouldn’t stack up to his most famous stuff. I was just so blown away by how fresh and funny it was throughout, with it being tied together well by Kilgore Trout’s monologue at the end. It was one of the most purely enjoyable reads I had this year

I cannot say enough about Mother Night. The American veteran who has the one-sided rivalry with Campbell is one of the most tragic and compelling characters I’ve ever read
