I recommend taking notes, because the timeline goes back and forth and it can get confusing if you have trouble following nonlinear timeline with a lot of recurring characters.
Otherwise, excellent book. Mind bending and social commentary along with excellent literary elements of character, plot, action, etc.

Fun and humorous at times, long-winded and repetitive at others. I loved the way that the story slowly unfolds and everything starts coming together and making more sense.

Could not get into the book. It was suppose to be funny but it was too bland

I tried to give this a chance since it’s a contemporary classic but I cannot stand how this book talks about women. I know it’s a satire; I still don’t enjoy reading about women being called slurs. I barely made a dent in this massive book but I was confused and didn’t enjoy it

This has been the longest book I've read this year. And to be honest, the fact that I didn't shove ‘Catch-22’ to a corner in utter impatience is a testament to how incredible this book was! Absolutely amazing book!
