Reply to comment by VistaLaRiver in What is the strangest way you've found a book? by WendellSanders01

Well, I think you definitely got lucky with your Vonnegut collection because I always try to find his books at the used bookstore and only very rarely do I find any by him. The last one I found was that Snuff Box book, I've been meaning to get around to it, I haven't gotten into it yet but it seems promising.

My favorite vonnegut short story, Thanasphere, is in that collection! I highly recommend. Not every story is as quirky and memorable, but that one story makes it worth it.

I just pulled that book off the shelf and started reading that story. It's masterful. Hadn't read it before you mentioned it. It has a range of emotions in it but still manages to make me laugh. Typical Vonnegut. It's interesting when I bought this book of his short stories I didn't think much of it, and wasn't planning to read it anytime soon, but it's a lot better than I expected. Thanks.
