Catch-22

I'm reading Catch-22 by Joseph Heller for English class. I'm at chapter 8 and so far I like the book and think it's actually pretty funny.The book is about a guy named Yossarian who is on the island of Pianosa, Italy as a bombardier. Yossarian does not want to die and keeps trying to get out of the army. He spends as much time as possible in the hospital and keeps trying to get the minimum amount of missions to go home.
