that I need to re-read Catch-22. I read it once three years ago, it was great. I love how at first you think Yossarian is crazy, but slowly realize he is the only sane one in the bunch. If you haven't read Closing Time, the sequel to 22, don't. I read it right afterwards. It is a severe let down. I even contemplated burning it, but I could never bring myself to burn a book. I gave it to the guy who let me borrow Catch-22- it is his burden now
