It's a warm bath kind of book. I love the humor.

I read both at a timultuous time in my life, and it showed me how to find humor amidst chaos and uncertainty. I swear they both rewired my brain.

okay i'm not *currently* reading it but i recently read it so it counts! for the uninitiated it's about a guy traveling to an island to research the guy who invented the atomic bomb who then ends up in all these weird antics. but it's also a satirical commentary on religion and society as a whole and more importantly consistently funny - big vonnegut fan and rlly liked this one

Charlie is a literal dumpster cat. I walked to my local gas station one night and he crawled out from under their dumpster and waited outside the gas station door and then rubbed on me and let me pick him up and carry him home. He is smarter than the average orange.
Greta was snatched up by my SO outside a crack house because he knows how deeply I adore torties. She is amazing.
Leon is the sweetest big-little boy. He was dumped nearby and found his way to my yard. One of the local ferals had bitten him and it was infected, so I brought him in and he let me shave the fur around his abscess. He is baby.
Lady was also dumped but as an elder cat. She had her kittens by my back door one easter morning. After weaning she got fixed and so did the kittens. Kittens got homes and she stayed on the back porch. She now barges her way in and out of the house as it pleases her.
Fizgig was found under our propane tank. Fully feral, not weaned but her mom went MIA so we used a crab net to catch her and get her inside. Charlie adopted her as his own and she loves him and hates everyone else.

The first album that I bought was a .25 yardsale cassette of Fleetwood Mac's Rumours. No case or album art. I couldn't even tell you why I chose it but I was absolutely hooked when I popped it in my tape player when I got back home.
If we're talking full price CDs from the store, my first was Californication by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. My dad told me not to waste my money buying an album for just one song. I had to insist that there were 3 songs that I knew I liked and I wanted the album to see if there were more. There were, in fact, a couple more songs I liked but, if my memory is right, I only really listened to the first half and then really disliked the second half.
