i've never finished Catch 22 (tried twice), but i've read the entire HHGTTG series twice. i'm usually quite a fan of dry humor, but 22 just didn't do it for me while i thought HHGTTG was very entertaining.
Catch 22 has some great dark humor, but it's not everyone's cup of tea.

Catch 22 is supposed to be repetitive....it's kind of like a theme. Smilie I can understand how it wouldn't be interesting for some people though.

Boooo. I thought Catch 22 was one of the funniest books I've ever read. Plus there is a TON of symbolism throughout the book that is just genius.

I just finished the 5th book of A Song of Ice and Fire (A Game of Thrones is the first book, and the HBO series is based on it.)
Very, very, very good. The fact that I read all 5 in a row makes for some parts that seemed drawn out, but overall the story is compelling and the characters are awesome.

i agree. i just cant take it. your traffic book was a great example. i read most of it cause of your recommendation.. but i couldn't finish it. what i read was fascinating and great conversation with other drivers. but i can't take all of the book
