The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead

That is a great book to read. But I highly doubt that there will be a Zombie attack any time soon.

Currently reading "Das zerbrochene Rad" ("The broken wheel"), a nearly 1000 pages novel set in the world of a pen and paper RPG I enjoy.

I'm still slowly working on the Thirty Years' War.

I knew it'd be more of a long term project. I'm still only on the first section.

Something I'm reading more of is the absolutely fantastic "Inside a US Embassy: How the Foreign Service Works". It was totally worth the money, and it certainly doesn't paint a glorified picture of FS work at all, but even so, I think this book is helping to reinforce my determination to join the service all the more, and I'm learning quite a lot as I go on.

I might start the "Age of Fire" series soon, as I got the first two books for my Birthday, and might be getting the third one soon as well.

The Wise Man's Fear, the sequel to The Name of the Wind. Recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy novels like Harry Potter.. A real pageturner.

Though be warned, this book is 984 pages long.

Finished reading "The Martian Chronicles" by Ray Bradbury.
I'm going to take a copy of Hugh Laurie's "The Gun Seller" with me on a trip to Maldives, so that i would have something to read during the 9 hours long flight.

Life of Pi, for my summer reading course.
It reminds me of a far more condensed Moby Dick...that's much easier to follow.

Also, the Road...bringing it when I go to Paris (hopefully).

And How to Read Literature like a Professor.
Thank you, very much, book. Now Dracula translates to me as chasing a serial killer/rapist...which is actually quite awesome. Since they couldn't write about that during the time, the vampire thing works pretty well. But then I am reminded of how low vampires of sunk since then <_<

I can't recommend this enough.

I'm REALLY gonna do it... or at least attempt it. I've been hearing so much about the series that I've finally given in and have decided to attempt it. I'm gonna start A Song of Ice and Fire by reading Game of Thrones. Starting it tonight.

am currently re-reading natures New Deal about the CCC program during the Depression. Seriously why cant they revive that program and add it to a department of conservation?
