I absolutely love this book and love Vonnegut in general.

Anyone else?

Yes, a great book, there was also a great movie made of the book, directed by George Roy Hill and incidentally starring one of my favorite actresses, Valerie Perrine as Montana Wildhack. The film is brilliant, and was apparently loved by Vonnegut, as well, and features a rare soundtrack by Glenn Gould.
