"I wanted to read God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater basically because I love Kurt Vonnegut. He's one of my favorite authors, and I've read a lot of books by him. And basically, if I'm looking for something to read I'll go to the library and pick out one that I haven't read. God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater is about, it's principally about Elliot Rosewater, who is a man in his 30's to 40's who inherited a large sum of money when he was a child. As far as characters I identify with, there are parts of several of the characters, I guess. Eliot, just in terms of - if I had that money, I would love to think that I wouldn't keep it all to myself; I would try to give it to people. What I liked most about the book really, I mean Kurt Vonnegut's style I love. He really has kind of a similar style throughout his books. It's funny but also dark in the way that he's kind of digging down into society's ills. I'd recommend this book certainly to anyone who loves Kurt Vonnegut books or who's read any at all, really, as well as people who like to think of themselves as being socially conscious. I would say probably four out of five, simply just because of the ending that I mentioned; and it wasn't my favorite out of the Kurt Vonneguts that I've read but still completely worth reading."
