But I really enjoyed his style, so I'll probably read more of his books soon. Palahnuik is also a great writer, I enjoyed Fight Club, and I plan to read Choke. -Scott Sam & James,

When introducing Vonnegut to someone that is the first book I recommend they read. It's often hard to find a writer with Vonnegut's style and prose that can write an enjoyable story in so few pages. The closest anyone has come is Chuck Palahnuik, though he even has a writing style all his own. Is there any authors that you would recommend for fans of Vonnegut?

If you enjoy essays then Fates Worse Than Death is a great read. -James Slaughterhouse five is one of my favorite books, I can’t tell if this is the first Vonnegut you have read but if it is you should also put Cat’s Cradle, Breakfast of Champions, Mother Night, and God Bless You Mr. Rosewater.
