My first book of the new year is one that has been suggested to me by several of my room mates before being lent to me by Chris Z. I have a love for zombies, so a fiction book written as an actual history book about the war with zombies is very enticing. I'd like to say the book is far more intelligent and academically written than you'd think at first, but I definitely don't put this on the level of some of the other books being read this week. But what does that matter, I should be allowed to read somethings for just enjoyment, especially given the last few books I've read. I'm 104 pages in and the book is really cool. I'll talk more when I finish it. For now, it's given an unusual approach to my favorite horror (sub)genre and is written with a level of realistic attention to keep me entertained.

Well I'm being less academic than everyone else this week
