Catch-22 reviewed by @commuterfiction
6 out of 10
Yossarian is a bombardier on an island near Italy and wants to stop flying missions. The number of missions required keeps going up. The chapters move between characters and repeat scenes from other sides.

Funny until it decides not to be, and the readers who quit early never find that out.

Laughed out loud on the bus at Milo and his eggs. Then it turns and you feel like an idiot for laughing. Best thing I've read this year.
