Blog 3 1/27/2012 So far in the book Kurt was trying to go to Dresden but the plane didn't even land in Boston but it picked up his friend Bernard. So Kurt had to go to a hotel for free. there he wrote a war book about a guy called Billy Pilgrim who supposedly knows about aliens on a planet called Tralfamadore because he got sucked into a time warp from the aliens. eventually he got drafted to the army during WW2 as a assistant to a chaplain of a regiment that was being destroyed by the Germans.

Blog 2 1/20/2012 So far in Slaughterhouse five Kurt Vonnegut is talking about wanting to talk about Dresden with Bernard O'Hare and meeting a cab driver named Gerhard Muller and eventually goes to see his friend Bernard to see if they could remember Dresden for this book. Talks about a trade off of prisoners, Russians with clocks, a drunken soldier, and Bernard's wife and the promise to her. [| http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombing_of_Dresden_in_World_War_II]

I am starting to read Slaughterhouse Five By Author Kurt Vonnegut because i heard that it was during the WW2 period and I'm a fan i guess of war like stuff. I don't know what it will be like but i hope there is some fighting instead of him just being a prisoner and talking about getting abducted by aliens.
