I think Catch-22 is fine the first time around, but I'm the kind of person who will go back and scan previous pages if I'm confused about a reference to something.

Catch-22 gets better after being read a few times, it takes multiple reads just to get everything straight, and like Henry said, it works well. Oh yeah, I started three pages in a row.  Edited by A Person - January 12 2010 at 00:52 |

I'm genuinely jealous of someone who gets to read Dune for the first time

Catch-22 is much better than Dune. That's the only book for me where a shattered storyline has really worked. Kurt Vonnegut does a similar thing, although less shell-shocked, but I can't stand him.

It really is a good book, I don't want to say anything about it before you read it though. |

I've been reading my philosophy course book. I think the author is in love with himself.

I don't think so, but I need to read it at some point anyway, I still haven't gotten around to it. I'm about to start reading Dune again tonight.

That sounds like a BS class.
Co-pilots only make $20,000 a year? Damn, that's barely more than I would make at my current salary if I were full time. And I have a crappy job!

It's a class devoted to reading humorous books from different time periods. One of the selections is part of the Pantagruel cycle, so I'll finally get to read a bit into Gentle Giant's subject matter.  |

I need to research him more too, it's always nice to here more free improv cello. Also, the name Ultranationalist is horrible. Edited by A Person - January 12 2010 at 00:24 |
