Just picked up the Unwanteds.
Not bad at all if your the creative artist type, and overall a fun book so far, though I'm not done reading it...

Weapon: Stinger Missile
I'm reading The New Dead, which is an anthology of zombie stories. One is by Max Brooks, who wrote World War Z and The Zombie Survival Guide and one is by Stephen King's son. Some of the stories are about zombies only by some very stretched definitions, but on the whole it was good. One story hurt my brain to read, but other than that the stories were average to great, and one in particular (the longest of the bunch) was, to be honest, nothing short of incredible.

I have about three or four left until I'm done.
What the--Someone let me publish a book! Check out Not So Superpowered. At 80 pages, it's a quick read. Except for you, Burn. You'll take a week or two.

Just downloaded The Litigators by John Grisham. I'll also be starting The Brass Verdict by Michael Connelly.

I have given up on the previous two reads, will get back to them in the new year.

Currently going through The Jedi Path, which arrived yesterday in Collector's edition!
(As a present, completely unexpected, which was nice.)

Also A Short History of Myth, by Karen Armstrong, which has been waiting on my bedside table for a while. And The Hurricane Party, by Klas Ostergren.
Should get onto Jung's Man and his Symbols soon, or my work won't budge..
It's all about trying too hard: The Amazing Adventures of Dennis and Bruce!

Just started reading World War Z by Max Brooks. It's a slow start, but I'm getting into it. Also, I'm reading through the Preacher TPBs. Awesome.

What...the...hell...? How is it my fault you can't handle reading?

I'm not impressed with World War Z so far. The Zombie Survival Guide was much better.

WWZ and The Zombie Survival Guide are very different books. If you were expecting something like the survival guide, put the book down now or prepare to be disappointed.


The next book in the Horus Heresy series just came out a few days ago. I'll be downloading Deliverance Lost tonight! I've also started the Sword of Truth series.

I wasn't expecting the same, just along the same lines. And it's not the content, it's the pacing. But I just started reading.
