1 year agoNot tinder, but a guy I met at school once (kind of through a mutual from a club we were in/kind of through an event on campus that we ended up talking at). The second time I ran into him, we somehow ended up talking about Kurt Vonnegut and Douglas Adams and a few other authors and books we loved for a while and he invited me to other club events at school before he eventually took me to a garden on a date :))
Now we’ve been going on dates for 11 months and officially dating for 9 months.
Funny I’m the opposite! I never disliked cat’s cradle, I was just so confused by his style because that was the first one I’d read by him. Went to the Monkey House collection, loved that, read Slaughterhouse-5 and fell in love with it, and then recently was able to find copies of more of his work so I can continue reading through it all! (Hopefully, I can find Cat’s Cradle and give it another go now that I understand his style of writing).
(So far, I have also read Sirens of Titan, The Bogombo Snuff Box collection, and Breakfast of Champions. I plan to read Player Piano next)
