I have been thinking about Kurt Vonnegut lately. I had read most of his books by my early twenties, and despite how hard they hit me (or because of that), most of them I haven't read since. But I miss him a lot right now (I'm actually tearing up as I type this), and I've been thinking about going on a Vonnegut binge. It occurred to me that perhaps some of you would like to join me in that. Sort of a Vonnegut-a-month club, maybe. We could each take a book (dibs on Cat's Cradle!) and rotate hosting discussions of them. At this point there is no plan, but I thought I'd throw it out there for anyone else who might want to revisit him--or read him for the first time, if that's your situation.

Kurt's 86th birthday would have been on November 11, so that seems like a good day to start something. Whaddya think?
