I seriously need to finish this book some time soon... (My English teacher commented on the fact that I hadn't finished it today, because it's been laying on my desk for ridiculously long. This has gone too far.)

the best book i've ever read for school by far!!

I love this book so much. Time for a reread

Didn't know what to expect when I started this. I had no idea it was so funny!

Been trying to get into this for a couple days without success. I think I'll give up. Not all classics are great to read.

For some reason I have never read this book....so here goes. Have searched through loads of "must read books" lists & this one keeps coming up.

If I can stop reading text books...

It’s because of Frank Sinatra that we use the phrase “Catch-22” today. Well, sort of. Author Joseph Heller tried out Catch-11, but because the original Ocean’s Eleven movie was newly in theaters, it was scrapped to avoid confusion. He also wanted Catch-18, but, again, a recent publication made him switch titles to avoid confusion: Leon Uris’ Mila 18. The number 22 was finally chosen because it was 11 doubled.

...the only people permitted to ask questions were those who never did. Soon the only people attending were those who never asked questions, and the sessions were discontinued altogether since Clevinger, the corporal and Colonel Korn agreed that it was neither possible nor necessary to educate people who never questioned anything.

Doc Daneeka. (Being single gives me too much time on my hands... Atleast this book is decent)

The Texan (Started again because...well, i don't bloody understand this book and I want so much to be able to. :P)

I just reached Ch. 4, after months of trying to pick the book back up, and I'm finally finding the laugh out loud parts that Kiera mentioned when we started it in July. She was right and I'm finally eager to continue it.

Just for English Lit, starting to be a good read.

I love this book. Read it twice and shared excerpts with my students.

I think I'll have met all the Allied troops before this is done!

Figure I'd read this. Heard its a classic.

100 pages in and enjoying this immensely. I see so much of my everyday existence in this WWII set novel. I don't know if that says more about me or about the world we live in

One of the greatest books ever written.

finished the book. it. was. awesome.

Just finished it, best book i have ever read. It was moving, shocking, exhilarating but most of al hilarious!

Yossarian is not crazy =P

I'm about half way through this book and am thoroughly enjoying it.

When will I ever finish this book?

I can't believe I never read this one, noes. Good time as any.

I've heard only good things about this book and lie in wait of some thorough entertainment!
