My second favorite Kurt

I’ve been reading a lot lately because of the two two hours a day I am now commuting to work. Most people generally hate having a commute to work, but I think it is my favorite part of the day. I have an hour to get my brain together, and get to spend some quality time with a book. I think since I started my new job I’ve read 15 or so books, ranging from ficton, to biography’s to poetry and theory. I will pretty much read anything put in front of me.

Lately I have really gotten into Vonnegut, and have read the above three books in the last couple of weeks. I think my favorite would be Blue Beard, with Player Piano coming in a close second (I hated it when I first started reading it, gave it a break, and now I love it). I don’t know what it is about him, but his style of reading is just so easy to follow. His words just flow off the page and cast these visuals that make you never want the book to stop. I generally get a sad feeling everytime I have finished one of his novels, but at least I know that it is now time for a new one.

I hope to read everything he put out within the next year, and I look forward to getting on to the next one.

Oh, and on another note, I was at the following show 2 years ago to the day. That weekend was better then most.
