Slaughterhouse 5 isn't a Horror Book

Slaughterhouse 5: Or, the Children's Crusade, A Duty-Dance with DeathSlaughterhouse 5: Or, the Children's Crusade, A Duty-Dance with Death by Kurt Vonnegut
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

This book follows Billy Pilgrim as he has become unstuck in time. The main character bounces between his experiences during World War 2 to being a captive in an alien zoo. Its absolutely weird and ridiculous. Its supposed to be based somehow on Kurt Vonnegut's experiences in Dresden during the 1940's but I failed to see how. I didn't even like the book from a sci-fi point of view.
