4.0

This was weirdly enough the first Vonnegut I read. I want to pick up more. I enjoyed the story and found it easy to read. 

Several plots and themes felt as I would expect something written in 1959 to feel. The Sci fi style of that era is much different than I am used to, but still read like a romp in space. 

There were strong ethical questions raised, as well as the overwhelming preoccupation with what is the point of life. 

I look forward to discussing this with my bookclub.
